Maybe you ran into the same thing as I did a few days ago: Cups comes with its own lpr, /usr/local/bin/lpr. The apps try the base system lpr in /usb/bin. You may have to adjust your $PATH to have /usr/local/bin first, or backup /usr/bin/lpr and ln -s /usr/local/bin/lpr /usr/bin/lpr Last method has to be repeated after any installworld. Michael
