Problem Possible Cause and Solution I can't make a printer the system default. In some conditions, it may not be possible to change the default queue. This happens with some variants of LPRng, especially on recent RedHat systems that use the "printconf" database of queues. When using printconf, the /etc./printcap file is automatically refreshed from the database of printers managed by the system (usually through the "printtool" command), and the queues in /etc./printcap.local are appended to the resulting file. The default queue in LPRng is defined as the first queue in /etc./printcap, therefore it is not possible for the Linux Printer Package to change the default when some queues have otherwise been defined using printtool. LPD systems identify the default queue as the one named "lp". Thus, if there is already a queue by this name, and if it doesn't have an alias, then you won't be able to change the default. To work around this, you can either delete the queue or rename it by manually editing the /etc./printcap file. The N-up setting does not work correctly for some of my documents. The N-up feature is achieved through post-processing of the PostScript data that is being sent to the printing system. However, such post-processing can only be adequately achieved if the PostScript data conforms to the Adobe Document Structing Conventions. Problems may arise when using N-up and other features relying on post-processing if the document being printed isn't compliant. I am using BSD lpr (Slackware, Debian, older distributions) and some options chosen in LLPR don't seem to take effect. Legacy BSD lpr systems have a hard limitation on the length of the option string that can be passed to the printing system. As such, if you selected a number of different options, you may have exceeded the length of the options and some of your choices won't be passed to the programs responsible for implementing them. Try to select fewer options that deviate from the defaults, to save on memory usage. I am trying to print a document in Landscape mode, but it prints rotated and cropped. Most Unix applications that offer a Landscape orientation option in their printing options will generate correct PostScript code that should be printed as is. In that case, you need to make sure that you leave the LLPR option set to its default Portrait setting, to avoid unwanted rotations of the page that would result in cropped output. Some pages come out all white (nothing is printed), and I am using CUPS. If the data being sent is in Encapsulated PostScript (EPS) format, some earlier versions of CUPS (1.1.10 and before) have a bug preventing them from being processed correctly. When going through LLPR to print, the Printer Package will work around this issue by converting the data to regular PostScript. However, if your application bypasses LLPR and feeds EPS data to CUPS, the document may not print correctly. 7.32 SOLVING PROBLEMS
