(I think I've seen this on my 8.4 solaris machine, but I was playing
with some other printing stuff there, so it's possible it's my fault.
I haven't done anythign to the linux box tho.)
When I try to M-x print-buffer, it seems to work, but the job never
makes ti to the print spool. From my *Messages* buffer:
Loading lpr...
Loading lpr...done
Spooling with options -z -h...
Spooling with options -z -h...done
but:
vorpal-blade:~: lpq -Pvln
Printer: vln@husqvarna 'HP5000 outside E40-333'
Queue: no printable jobs in queue
Status: job 'rferrara@DEENA+8' removed at 17:24:26.719
Filter_status: done at 17:24:26.584
emacs was invoked with:
vorpal-blade:~: ( setenv PRINTER vln ; emacs & )
