lpr

[Nancy Premer]

Folks,
    At school, I'm trying to set up a local printer on a
486 that we got from a gov't donation. Running RH5.2, I
used printtool to write the printcap file, and only /dev
/lp1 was detected. Now when I send a test page from print-
tool, he says "can't write file /dev/lp1; file busy". Back
 at the command line, I send a job to lpr and get "lpr:
connect:no such file or directory.jobs queued but cannot 
start daemon." Immediately after this message, lpq yields 
"lp is ready and printing". In /dev, lp0,1,&2 are present;
in var/spool/lpd/lp, lp.lock says 517.
    Any ideas?

TIA
