Hello there,                

        I was just wondering on how I came to have the following
message whenever I try and print something...

        (NOAH: ~)lpr file_name  
        lpr: connect: No such file or directory
        jobs queued, but cannot start daemon.
        (NOAH: ~)                

I would then have to type "lpd" to get the printing going. Also when I
run the "lpc" program, and I try and start everything, I get the
following message...                
        (NOAH: ~)lpc                
        lpc> start all          
        lp:                
                printing enabled
        lpc: connect: No such file or directory
                couldn't start daemon 
        lpc>    
        
I am currently using Slackware 3.0, this problem did not exist when I
was using 2.3 but I don't know if this problem came about because of
the change or because of some other factor. (I haven't been printing 
for a while you see).
        Setup:
                486-DX50
                HP LaserJet 4L (I don't think the rest is important
                                but if it is just let me know...)

I would appreciate help from anyone...

Thanks in advance...
