[TCLUG] Network printing not working

Hi

Some dumb questions:

 > /
        IP Address      : 10.0.0.250
        Subnet Mask     : 255.255.255.0
???     Default Gateway : 10.0.0.250 <- ?? How can it resolve its own problems?
        Syslog Server   : Not Specified

hptq:\
:lp=:\
:rm=skinner:\
:rp=text1:\
:lf=/var/spool/lpd/hptq.log:\
:sd=/var/spool/lpd/hptq:
 
hprq:\
:lp=:\
:rm=skinner:\
:rp=raw1:\
:lf=/var/spool/lpd/hprq.log:\
:sd=/var/spool/lpd/hprq:

root at homer:# lpd -P skinner xwindows.txt

???  Isn't this lpr? Perhaps the space between the P and the skinner isn't
     significant, but I've seen where it is.

The job never comes out. Looking in /var/spool/lpd the job it sitting
there:

root at Homer:/var/spool/lpd# ls
cfA026Homer  dfA026Homer  lock  lpd.lock  status

and cat status gives:

root at Homer:/var/spool/lpd# cat status

??? I thought spooldir was lpd/hptq
