But, it doesn't work! lpq tells me this message : Waring: no daemon present Rank Owner Job Files Total Size 1st root 0 test.ps 14229 bytes "no daemon present"? But I can see 'lpd' like this (with ps -aux): root 97 0.0 0.2 200 256 ?? Is 11:47AM 0:00.03 lpd So, could you tell me what's the problem? Thanks! Walter Li
