Sometime my printer, which had been working, stopped working. I didn't notice right away, so I don't know what did it, but I have been running up2date recently, so maybe? I can print as root to /dev/lp0, so the printer is hooked up right, but can't use lpr. If I try, the job gets removed right away (that's what lpq says). I don't have a /var/log/lpd-error file, so I don't know how to debug the problem. /etc/printcap says printer is set up for lp0. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.lpr 2. 3. Actual Results: lpq gives: Printer: basic@mycomp Queue: no printable jobs in queue Status: job 'cfA669mycomp.drake.edu' removed at 10:20:27.209 Expected Results: lpq gives: printing Additional info:
Please attach: /etc/alchemist/namespace/printconf/local.adl /var/spool/lpd/basic/lpq.0 Thanks.

The lpq.0 has the answer: you have installed AFPL Ghostscript 7.04 by hand, and forgot to enable the stp device.
