You mean something like this (in messages):

=09Jan 26 11:47:11 Maxine lpd[69998]: lpd startup: logging=3D0

It's the only thing I see dealing with print functionality. That line als=
o=20
shows up in lpd-errors.

The last line of my dmesg.today is this

=09lpt0: switched to polled extended mode

Other lines in dmesg seem to indicate all's well with the OS and printer.=
=2E.

=09ppbus0: <EPSON Stylus COLOR 900> PRINTER ESCPL2,PRPXL24,BDC,D4
=09plip0: <PLIP network interface> on ppbus0
=09lpt0: <Printer> on ppbus0
=09lpt0: Interrupt-driven port
=09ppi0: <Parallel I/O> on ppbus0

Thanks for your help!
