[olug] Printer help

[Charles Broer]

I have not been able to get my printer configured and need some help in doing 
so.

First some background:
I am a newbie to linux
My equipment is an Intel Pentium II processor.
It is a dual boot system: LInux or Windows.
The printer is a Hewlett Packard LaserJet 4P.
I am running Red Hat linux version 7.2 and using a KDE desktop.
I am trying to use the driver with the displayed name of ljet4.
The printer is on and connected properly. It works under Windows or DOS.

I go to the K menu -> System -> Printer Configuration and after I have gone 
through the configuration routine I try to print a test page. The last two 
messages I get are:

1: "lpd restart succeeded"
2: "There was an error trying to print the test page"

I thank you for any help I can get
Charlie
