Hi,
If you can tell us the make and model of the printer, I may be able to get
hold of a manual for you.

Hi Lee
Thanks. I'm not using CUPs but I take your point about resolution.
One of my printers is an old Epson compatible 9pin impact brought
back to life in order to print listings. It's manual has gone the way
of all manuals but I recollect that the res was 240x216.
Perhaps my memory is at fault so I'll try a more common res.

Deleting the lock file from /var/spool/lpd/printer and running a print
job produces a new lock file with permissions root root -rwr--r--.
As I have a lp group the permissions should be root lp -rwrw-r--
(I think) so perhaps I have set up my lpd system incorrrectly.
I'll investigate the res and premissions idea and let you know the
outcome of my efforts.

Keith
