<This is a repost>
After spending several hours at it, I have been unable to configure via
lpadmin, a dialout printer, using an entry from the Systems file. The
command I am issuing is:
lpadmin -p pda -A write -U lppda -u "allow:pda jgd root" \
-T prism -D "Paul's Personal Printer" -m standard \
-o "length=68" -o nobanner
The intent is to have lp dialout and deliver the print job to a remote
printer (that has a modem connected). Currently, lpsched gets as far
as accessing the port, but fails with a 'CANT ACCESS DEVICE'. I see
DTR go up for ~10 seconds, fall again, and as soon as it comes down,
I get the error message on the console.
Has anyone gotten this to work with ANY version of Interactive Unix?
How about ANY lp system on ANY Unix?
If folks mail, I will summarize and post. Thanks!
