Hello

In reference to a DeskJet 820Cse on FBSD 4.5R:

/etc/printcap is set up for lp.  I used the if-simple script from the 
handbook.  I have read the chapter on printing (hdbk), and the man pages 
for lpc, lpr, lptest.

dmesg shows that FreeBSD sees and recognizes lpt0 on ppbus0.

lpc status all tells me printing is enabled, spooling enabled, printer idle.

Still, I receive no output from either lptest or sending a text file to the 
spooler.  What am I missing?

Oh, yeah...please mail to  joshualokken@attbi.com  , as this is my 
questions address.


TIA,

Joshua
