The Linux Printing Usage HOWTO: Troubleshooting Next Previous Contents

6. Troubleshooting

This section covers some common things that can go wrong with your printing system.

If your printer doesn't work:

  • Do other print jobs work? (application problem?)
  • Is lpd running? (check it using lpc) (print controller?)
  • Can root send something directly to the printer? (print services?)
  • Can you print from DOS? (cable/printer problem?)
Answering these questions can help find a solution.
