Specified this in Mozilla with lpr -P HP5SI and no output on the
printer. Again, the funny thing is I can send test print jobs from the
admin gui and they always work. I didn't see any log entries for the
job in /var/log/cups/ in error or page but the access_log had this:
[root at dualboot cups]# more access_log
localhost - - [14/Apr/2004:09:12:53 -0500] "POST / HTTP/1.1" 200 135
localhost - - [14/Apr/2004:09:12:53 -0500] "POST / HTTP/1.1" 200 135
localhost - - [14/Apr/2004:09:12:53 -0500] "POST / HTTP/1.1" 200 75
Does anyone think that maybe reinstalling over the top would help reset
any permission issue or something. Maybe creating a new user and trying
that.
