Todd,<br /><br />
Do you have the following line(s) for this client in your lts.conf ?<br />
(you showed only the one line lts.conf config in your post)<br /><br />
1)<br /><br />
[MA:CD:DR:ES:SS:SS(myclient)]<br />
PRINTER_0_DEVICE=/dev/usb/lp0 (or /dev/usblp0)<br />
PRINTER_0_TYPE=U<br /><br />
On the TC drop to a shell and do <br />
ls -la /dev/usb/<br /><br />
You should see /lp#<br /><br />
2) Asking the obvious . You did add the driver for this printer to the<br />
server? Did this printer work alright connected to the server itself?<br /><br />
3) What brand of printer is it. <br />
Some Lexmark printers are very difficult to get working on ltsp,or any<br />
Linux distro for that matter.<br /><br />
Take Care,<br />
