As a preamble, I've been working on this problem for a couple of weeks; I've been checking out the handbook, posting to the newsgroups, and checked groups.google.com in case these questions were already answered. They may well have been, but I couldn't find the answers :( I have a Dell Dimension system running FreeBSD for which Netscape will be the primary application. I have attached an HP 940c printer. I've installed the current port of ghostscript-afpl, and can print from Netscape, after a fashion, but it needs to be a lot less hands on before I can deploy the workstation. When I click on File|Print in Netscape, the dialog box comes up. The print command is notated as lpr -P hpijs, although I've tried it with lp as well. When I click on OK, I get small window in the center of the screen labeled Netscape: subprocess diagnostics (stdout/stderr) that says lpr: connect: no such file or directory jobs queued, but cannot start daemon When I go to the # prompt and type lpd, the page prints with error messages. So I abandon Netscape, and go back to the # prompt. I issued the command #lpr -P lp .profile and got the error messages: lpr: connect: no such file or directory jobs queued, but cannot start daemon which are the same messages I get when I print out of Netscape. So I go to check the spool directory and find the files cfA012sci.hslc.org and dfA012sci.hslc.org in /var/spool/lpd So I type lpd at same prompt. I get the error messages Mar 21 11:20:44 sci lpd[280]: lp: filter 'f' terminated (termsig=35) Mar 21 11:20:44 sci lpd[280]: lp: job could not be printed (cfA012sci.hslc.org) BUT THE PAGE PRINTED! In /var/spool/lpd, files cfA012sci.hslc.org and dfA012sci.hslc.org disappear, but file lock appears, with contents 280 cfA012sci.hslc.org Here are the relevant files, etc: sci# uname -a FreeBSD sci.hslc.org 4.2-RELEASE FreeBSD 4.2-RELEASE #0: Mon Jul 23 10:17:25 EDT 2001 root@accesspa.state.pa.us:/usr/src/sys/compile/GENERIC i386 sci # gs -h AFPL Ghostscript 7.03 (2001-10-20) Copyright (C) 2001 artofcode LLC, Benicia, CA.
