Subject: PPR: ppr refuses to print
Ok I'm not sure what the problem is here so I'm writing to see if you
folks know of the problem. I compiled and installed ppr according to
instructions but I cannot seem to print jobs through it.
Here's my setup. I have a Lasermaster Unity 1200XL-0 laser printer on
parallel port one.
What happens is that the job is seemingly submitted successfully to pprd
but it never gets to the printer. It just sits there in the que never
printing. I go through lpr (which I can't get to work properly but
that's another matter) and it will print but it will not print through
ppr. I checked and made This is what the config looks like when I type
in ppad show lasermaster
Printer name: lasermaster

Thanks for the help.
Sincerely,
