Hi,
I have installed CUPS on my FreeBSD-8.2 operating system. With several network printers available automatically when I open the web interface on Firefox: localhost:631, I am able to print using firefox --> file ---> print. But printing is not working for anything else, neither via lpr nor via the other GUI tools (e.g. Okular). I have replaced the FreeBSD lp* with /usr/local/bin/lp* already.

- Printing jobs from the other software won't even show up in the job queue.
- lprstat shows the same thing as one can see via localhost:631.
- lpq shows that the default printer is ready to print.
- simply type 'lpr', the output is
and then the localhost:631 would be down, and I have to restart CUPS.Code:
lpr: unknown
