Subject: PPR: Receiving mail from PPR

Hello,

  I have the following configuration (ppad show hp2100) as the only printer
defined in the machine:

Printer name: hp2100
Comment:
Interface: tcpip
Address: "10.180.30.65:9100"
Options:
JobBreak: pjl (by default)
Feedback: yes (by default)

Alert frequency: 0 (never send alerts)
Alert method: none
Alert address: none

All alert parameters are turned off.  But the user receives nevertheless a mail message when trying to print (ppr ...options, etc.., file.) when the
pprd deamon being loaded.
The message is the following:

Fatal: can't open FIFO, pprd is probably not running

I have looked at the cron directories in /etc but so far couldn't find a "remind" entry.  I'm not familiar with cron configuration, so I may be
missing something.
Is it possible to supress altogether these e-mail warnings ?

Regards,

Alain
