Hi,

We have a Netware environment with spx/ipx protocol support only, where printers are attached to Netware servers. I am looking for printing on these printers through Ubuntu Desktop 9.10.

I tried using LPR/LPR host by specifying server name as host and printer queue name against printer queue and then selected printer driver (HP LaserJet 6l). Also enabled 'show printers shared by other systems'. But when printing through OpenOffice 3.1 getting following error:

"Print error. There was a problem sending document 'xxx' (Job 2) to the printer.' Diagnose/OK.

Printing troubleshooter says 'Queue Not Enabled'. The queue <queue name> is not enabled. The reason given is: 'Unable to locate printer '<Netware Server Name>'.

To enable it, select the 'enabled' checkbox in Policies tab. I checked. It is already enabled. What to do?
