Message-ID: <3DFD4529.1040700@pghmail.com> (raw)
Hello,
After installing RH 8.0 in my HP Pentium II, my first successful installation,
I installed a Brother HL-720 printer. I set it up local. The Printer
Administration window shows:
Command: lpr
Driver: Generic Printer (SGENPRT)
Location:
After printing 2 of 3 pages from
Mapquest, the printer indicated toner out. I replaced the cartridge and
there was an error light which can be cleared by unplugging the printer
cable and cycling the printer off. I reset the print queue and the same
2 pages printed and the error light flashed. Rebooted - same error light.
Attempts to print additional items failed. Later I entered
"lprm" to cancel anything pending and got
"local host IP not available." When I entered
"/etc/init.d/lpd stop" I got
"[FAILED]"
I repeated it and got
"[FAILED]"
"local host IP not available"
In the panel is a ? which when clicked gives
"Temporary error in name resolution."
So far I haven't learned what this IP is about. I would appreciate help.
Yours truly,
Bill
