I checked the /dev directory, and there are no printer files present at all. Needless to say, lpd won't come up either. My question, is how can I create the files that I need? For some reason, they didn't come out of the distribution, and I have no idea where to get them. Can I download them from somewhere, or do I need to create them manually? Thanks for any help.
