What's the file format of smbprn.000004.mITl7Y? Is it compatible with what the backend/parallel port/printer is expecting? i.e., if it is postscript, does the printer support postscript? If it is HPGL, does the printer support that? What does file show: file smbprn.000004.mITl7Y What happens if you copy smbprn.000004.mITl7Y to /tmp and do: lpr /tmp/smbprn.000004.mITl7Y Does that work? -- Charles R.

Did you check /var/log/cups/error_log and /var/log/cups/access_log for anything interesting? Later, Andy -- Andy Stewart, Founder Worcester Linux Users' Group Worcester, MA USA http://www.wlug.org
