I thought , the command to enable printer is " enable printer_name".
Any idea, following not working on Debian 3.2, 2.4 smp kernel.

arqiozone:~# enable hpl8n
-su: enable: hpl8n: not a shell builtin
[...]

You accidentally invoked the bash shell's "enable" built-in command. To
use the enable command on-disk, specify the full pathname, e.g.
/usr/bin/enable hpl8n

good catch.

A


Or you could use a different shell:
$ csh
enable hpl8n

Or, ...
$ tclsh
% enable hpl8n

Or you could disable the enable command within bash:
$ enable -n enable
$ enable hpl8n

Do this to get help on the enable command (in bash):
$ help enable

Good luck.
