8.2.5.Troubleshooting

Sending a print job to an LPR print queue when the lprportd program is not running, results in an error indication. To solve the problem the print job has to be deleted from the queue, and the lprportd program has to be started afterwards. If this does not help, the server will probably have to be rebooted.
