Can someone can tell me why lpstat might put "(login terminal)" in the following "lpstat -t" output: scheduler is running system default destination: p device for p19: /dev/ttyi19 device for p23: /dev/ttyi23 p19 accepting requests since Nov 29 16:35 p23 accepting requests since Feb 21 15:56 printer p23 is idle. enabled since Feb 21 15:56 printer p19 (login terminal) is idle. enabled since Feb 22 14:49 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^ We have a spooled printer here that no longer works reliably after months of service. If I know why it spits this out I think I can solve the problem. -- Fred Fierling uunet!van-bc!mplex!fff Tel: 604 875-1461 Fax: 604 875-9029 Microplex Systems Ltd 265 East 1st Avenue Vancouver, BC V5T 1A7, Canada

If I know why it spits this out I think I can solve the problem. Sounds to me as if the port is enabled..... -- Michael R.
