Dear Sun-Managers,
I have an E5000 running Solaris 2.6 and have recently had
trouble printing to a remote printer. Attempts to send a
print job return message:
Error transferring print job 725
check queue for (text@geb50j)
The printer is connected OK:
# ping geb50j
geb50j is alive
And lpstat reports correct information:
# lpstat -v GEB50JR1
system for GEB50JR1: geb50j (as printer text)
# lpstat -aGEB50JR1
GEB50JR1 accepting requests since May 21 14:28 2002
BUT lpstat -p gives this error:
# lpstat -p GEB50JR1
UX:lpstat: ERROR: Printer "GEB50JR1" does not exist.
TO FIX: Use the "lpstat -p all" command to list
all known printers.
Attempts to enable the printer give this error:
# enable GEB50JR1
UX:enable: ERROR: Destination "GEB50JR1" is unknown to the
LP print service.
I am printing plain ascii text via lp. The printer has
worked fine for a long time, several months or even years,
but has just gone wrong yesterday. I can't find any
reference to these errors in the Sun documentation, so any
advice on how to fix this is much appreciated. I will
summarise.
Thanks
Doug
