Hi All

I have tried to setup my printer with no success. I am desperate now and also 
at a loss to know what to do next.

The printer I have is a Hewlett Packard DeskJet 520 

I have tried the method suggested in the Linux User Guide: with no luck.
I have tried using the cat PrinterProblems > /dev/lp1 and still no relief.
I have tried the /dev/insmod lp command and that gives me a error like:

I then used 

/sbin/insmod lp

it said that it could not open the directory /lib/modules/misc/ so I made 
that 
then I executed it again and then it said it could not see lp.o, so I made a 
symbolic link like so:

ln -s /lib/modules/2.0.30/misc/lp.o /lib/modules/misc/lp.o 

[root@localhost forge]# /sbin/insmod lp
wake_up: wrong version or undefined
current_set: wrong version or undefined
interruptible_sleep_on: wrong version or undefined
register_chrdev: wrong version or undefined
Loading failed! The module symbols (from linux-2.0.30) don't match your 
                                                               linux-2.0.13


Then I ran lpc status lp and got

[root@localhost misc]# lpc status lp
lp:
        queuing is enabled
        printing is enabled
        1 entry in spool area
        waiting for lp to become ready (offline ?)
[root@localhost misc]# 


The printer is on it jumped when I was setting it up during the installation
so why can't I print?

I posted the news group and it their help has still not worked

I'm alos going to include the printcap file.  
-----------------------------------------------------------------
# /etc/printcap
#
# Please don't edit this file directly unless you know what you are doing!
# Be warned that the control-panel printtool requires a very strict format!
# Look at the printcap(5) man page for more info.
#
# This file can be edited with the printtool in the control-panel.


##PRINTTOOL3## LOCAL cdj500 300x300 a4 {} DeskJet500 1 {}
lp:\
        :sd=/var/spool/lpd/lp:\
        :mx#0:\
        :sh:\
        :lp=/dev/lp1:\
        :if=/var/spool/lpd/lp/filter:

Maybe there is something wrong in the above file that you can help me with.

Any help will be much appreciated:
