Camilla,

Pillage is running AIX as an operating system, so zephyr is not installed.

User error on my part.  I have way too many printers defined on my machine, ;-(

I can print via klpr to central-letter now, from both my laptop and my 
desktop machines.

I have called Rick and asked him to submit a small test file via klpr from 
his desktop.

He called back to confirm.  Yes it is now working again.

Do you know what happened?


Thanks,

Lynne
