Hello.
I have solved my problem with printing with the hp deskjet. First some words for clarification. The machine is a non networked standalone sparc2 with solaris2.5 now. The printer is connected via serial port b. So the jetadmin software doesn't help me. I use a script that have done its work under solaris2.3 and solaris2.4. Also all permissions in /var/spool/lp/log and /var/lp
and /usr/lib/lp are all correct. Nevertheless only root could print. So i've change the permission of /usr/bin/lp to u+s and now users other than root can print too. But i think this solution is more a workaround.
Many thanks for your help and following is my original question:
> Hello.
> Here i'm again. I have just installed solaris2.5 and now i have troubles with printing on a hp deskjet 500c. Postscript code is interpreted by ghostscript. The problem is that only root can print, every other users receive error mail with following message:
> > cat:
> > could not access /var/spool/lp/requests/majestra/<jobid>-0
> I have checked all permissions, they are okay. Truss and a 'ls -l' in that directory shows me that the requested files are generated in following manner:
> -rw------- 1 root other <size> <jobid>
> -rw------- 1 lp lp <size> <jobid>-0
> -rw------- 1 user group <size> F<jobid>-0

> Has anybody similiar problems or could anybody help me?
