[LI] Printing Problem RH 6.0

[Krishnan Venkatachalam <vk@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I am able to print via X and also the Printtool test page is also
printed,
but I am unable to print via the console. lpr <filename> returns "lp0 :
unknown printer"

My /etc/printcap is fine as I am able to print the test page via X. The
printer is on lp0.

I also added in the /etc/profile the following :-

export PRINTER
PRINTER=lp0

But no luck.

Any workarounds ?

warm regards

Krishnan
