I am trying to print pdf's from these as printing in adobe reader 7 is disabled. I have cups installed and running and I can print from firefox and openoffice.org. In both xpdf and evince, the print dialog gives me a prompt for a printing command, not a printer to choose. This is a brother laser which is supported. This is a usb printer, lpstat shows: lpstat -p -d printer Brother_Laser is idle. enabled since Jan 01 00:00 system default destination: Brother_Laser /var/log/messages shows: Oct 6 08:45:56 enterprise lpd[11501]: /dev/lp: No such file or directory anything I can do to get printing in these apps to work? __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
