I wasn't able to get cups to work so installed lprng. |

For more details on my problem go to the archives and |
| 6 |
search against my name and 'print' and 'cups' |

This is what I see in my log. It says at least two |
| 9 |
spoolers active but ps -A reveals only one. |

Fatal error - Another print spooler active, possibly |

lpd process '5948' |

After running lprng stop ps-A reveals _no_ lpd |
| 19 |
processes and after attempts to print the log reports |
| 20 |
that the printer is "waiting". |
| 21 |
|

I used # lpd -F -D1 to read the log according to the |
| 23 |
instructions at |
| 24 |

Someone suggested that that particular command started |
| 28 |
another spooler. But if everything was alright in the |
| 29 |
first place it should have printed (lpr -J file.txt) |
| 30 |
before having to look at the log to see what was |
| 31 |
wrong. |
