To: questions@freebsd.org Date: Mon, 25 Dec 1995 13:28:26 -0500 (EST) X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.4 PL24] MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-questions@freebsd.org Precedence: bulk Dear all, During the break, I messed up my system quite seriously. Therefore, I reinstall the Freebsd 2.1 from the scratch. Now I restore upto 90%. But I can not make my printer work by no means. Previously, I could print many different types of files with apsfilter-4.9.1 & ghostscript-2.6.2 from my old HP LaserJet IIp printer. Now I've reinstalled ghostscript-2.6.2 & apsfilter-4.9.2. I try to print regular ascii file, such as "lpr -Plp ANNOUNCE", but nothing is printed: as soon as I issue that command, I check the print queue by "lpq -Plp": it indicates "no entries". This happens no matter what I print!!! -> actually nothing seems to be spooled at all.... So, I look at the /var/log/lpd-errs. I have a following error message: Jan 2 20:48:11 slip7 lpd[3175]: cannot execv /usr/local/apsfilter/filter/aps-ljet2p-letter-auto-mono ============ ?!?! If I do "cat > /dev/lpt0", then the printer is responding. Currently, I have a horrible time to fix that problem.... If it is possible, would you recommend some solutions? Thanks in advance.
