From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 Galeon/1.2.5 (X11; Linux i686; U;) Gecko/20020809 Description of problem: redhat-config-printer starts up fine, and will add printers to its list, and it will even restart lpd sucessfully. Then when I go to print either an ASCII or a postscript test page, it instantly says "Failed printing test page." I wondered about this, and decided to take a look in /etc/printcap, and sure enough, only the commented data was there. No actual printer information. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Run redhat-config-printer. 2. Add a printer. 3. Print test page. Actual Results: 1. No test page is printed. 2. No information is written into the /etc/printcap file. Expected Results: 1. Print test page. 2. Data written into /etc/printcap file. Additional info: I have sucessfully printed a test page using CUPS. I'm also rather new to Redhat and its configuration system, so this may not actually be related to redhat-config-printer. Perhaps its a bug in the lpd?
