Subject: setting up sol2.2 printers (servers/clients)

argh.  has anyone successfully gotten a solaris 2.2 print server (with
clients) working?  we can print from our server now, but nothing
else...  i've tried adding the client both with printer manager and by
hand (with the command lines), but to no avail.  as far as i can tell,
the /etc/lp/* stuff is ok (Systems, printer-name/configuration, etc).
here's the output from working through the printer troubleshooting in
chapter 7 of the "Setting Up User Accounts, Printers, and Mail"
manual.

thanks.
