Printer Problems
Action required
Test the printer without relying on your spooler by sending data direct
to the port you created and named when you ran the ioland daemon.
Do this by typing:
cat data_file > /dev/laser1
If this command returns, then the Unix system believes it has sent the
data and there is a good chance it has been printed successfully. This
would indicate that your print spooler has not been configured
properly.
Check to see if the daemon is running. On Unix this would be:
ps -ef | grep ioland
This should show an ioland daemon in the table for each printer. If it
isn't listed by this command, invoke it now. If it is not listed, it is
probably incorrectly configured. Kill it using the Unix kill command,
then run the ioland command again.
