- I have one NeXT with printer, running 2.1, amidst a sea of Suns. I've
- been running for a long time with the NeXT's Network Type configured
- as Non-NetInfo Network, with NIS enabled. The printer is a recent addition.
-
- Local print works fine, but I can't get the printer exported. If I just
- try a print operation from a remote Sun, I get:
-
- ... /usr/lib/lpd: Local_Printer: Your host does not have line printer access
-
- If I go to PrintManager, and try to enable Public access, I get an Alert box
- complaining "Printer cannot be exported to this same computer".
-
- What am I doing wrong?
