Hi All,
Help!
I just changed the drum on my Oki B6200. It connects via a print
server to my Cent OS 4.4 (same as Red Hat Enterprise Linux, only
cheaper) CUPS 1.1.22.0 server. Now it won't print. (The other
printers on CUPS do print.)
When I lpq the B6200, it says the "printer is not ready". It also
shows 14 print jobs.
When I run "cupsenable OkiB6200", lpq changes to
"OkiB6200 is ready and printing". But it doesn't print.
And, the jobs in the queue don't change.
I have powered off and on the printer and the print server.
No change. I have restarted cups (/etc/rc.d/init.d/cups restart),
no joy.
This happened to one of my other printer, after I changed its drum.
After tons of fussing, it started printing. I could never figure out
what I did.
How do I get this thing to start printing again? (Important: I only
have
access to the command line to fix it. Please no GUI commands.)
Many thanks,
-T
