If it crashed while printing from a FreeBSD machine, you could try typing lpq as root and this should list queued print jobs. Kill the print job (remove / loses whatever you were printing) using lprm <print job number>. Then power-off and power-on your printer to clear it's buffer (or use it's reset / purge) button? This (possible) solution is a bit drastic, maybe your printer hardware is dying? Has the ink / toner run out, etc., etc.? -- [ Christopher Raven [ E-mail: c.raven@ukonline.co.uk [ ICQ: 2254369 [ To err is human, to power is FreeBSD To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
