Hi,
 
I'm trying to get my Printer = (connected to a=20 parallel port) working with the spooler. At present the simple lptest = program=20 prints the desired output ok.
However, when I use the lptest with = the=20 spooler:
 
    lptest 20 5 |=20 lpr
 
I get an error saying:
 
    lpr: connect: No = such file or=20 directory
    job queued, = cannot start=20 daemon
 
I also get a "daemon not = present=20 warning" on the top line of output from the lpq command. =
 
Ghulam
