Hunting The Muse

I totally psyched myself

I totally psyched myself out with Jaguar. I had printing working in 10.1 and it was just a complete trial to get it to work. Then I upgraded to Jaguar and it WOULDN'T WORK anymore. And since I have an old linux box running samba connected to a print daemon that isn't CUPS, with an HP 6L acting like a postscript printer when it isn't by filtering its stuff through ghostscript, I was convinced that Apple had shut me out.

So tonight I open up print center and deleted the nonworking printer, and added it again - the ip of my linux box. And this time instead of selecting "choose default printer on server", I decided to explicitly type in "lp".

Printed a pdf document, came out perfectly.

Oh well. Damaged pride and humliation, but happy that my printer works. Posted by Curt at October 14, 2002 10:24 PM
