Printer Daemon

Since I installed release 2.4.1 I have been having a problem printing. I am using a USB printer.

My printcap is

prt01|lp|lp1|Default Printer
   :sh:\
   :sd=/var/spool/output/lp1:\
   :lp=/dev/ulpt0:\
   :if=/usr/local/libexec/dftif:\
   :lf=/var/log/lpd-errs:

My filter is

/bin/cat && printf"\f" && exit 0
exit 2

When I try to print and enter lpq I see

Warning: No daemon present

I then enter lpc start all and the file prints. When I try to print a second file I get the same
warning and need to enter start again.


The log file just says lpd startup.

Does anyone have an idea what is wrong?

Thanks, Jim Chapman
