Dear managers,
I am desparately trying to print to the second tray of our network
printer using lp from the Solaris shell prompt. My print system somehow
died during my attempts to get it to do what I want.
lpq
could not talk to print service at ultra45
I rebooted the machine, but the problem persisted! I then tried
/usr/bin/disable xerox
lpadmin -x xerox
svcadm disable svc:/application/print/ipp-listener:default
svcadm disable svc:/application/print/server:default
svcadm disable svc:/application/print/rfc1179:default
lpshut
pkill lpsched
ps still shows me two lpsched processes. pkill actually kills them but
they show up immediately again with new process ids.
ps -Af | grep lpsched
root 6876 2143 0 18:40:38 pts/1 0:00 grep lpsched
root 6870 1 0 18:40:37 ? 0:00
/usr/lib/lp/local/lpsched
root 6845 1 0 18:40:20 ? 0:00
/usr/lib/lp/local/lpsched
I nevertheless tried to setup the print system from scratch, but the
two lpsched process seem to disturb the system. When I try to print I
now get
Subject: Problem with printer xerox
The printer xerox has stopped printing for the reason given below.
Fix the problem and bring the printer back on line.
Printing has stopped, but will be restarted in a few minutes;
issue an enable command if you want to restart sooner.
Unless someone issues a change request
lp -i xerox-1 -P ...
to change the page list to print, the current request will be reprinted
from
the beginning.
The reason(s) it stopped (multiple reasons indicate repeated attempts):
exec exit fault<EOT>
failure to communicate with lpsched
I am stuck! How do I get rid of these two lpsched processes in order to
start from scratch?
Thanks a lot!
Regards,
Andreas
