I am trying to setup a remote printer.

>From my printcap file:

# Printer PILZP4
pilzp4|lp3|pilzp4:\
        :af=/usr/adm/lp3acct:\
        :if=/usr/lbin/hplaser4psof:\
        :lf=/usr/adm/lp3err:\
        :lp=/usr/spool:\
        :mx#0:\
        :of=/usr/lbin/hplaser4psof:\
        :pl#66:\
        :pw#80:\
        :rm=cadmin.nsac.ns.ca:\
        :rp=Harlow_PI_Upstars:\
        :rw:\
        :sd=/usr/spool/lpd3:\
        :xf=/usr/lbin/xf:

from lpc I get:

pilzp4:
        printer is on device '/usr/spool' speed -1
        queuing is enabled
        printing is enabled
        1 entry in spool area
        Mon Aug 19 11:24:18 1996: waiting for pilzp4 to become ready (offline ?)

The printer is turned on and is not offline. Could this be a permission
problem with the other machine?

Any help would be appreciated.
