Very Computer

In Sco Openserver 5.0.5, I am trying to reinstall some printers.  I
have deleted any reference to the printers in printcap, printcap.bak,
and /var/spool/lpd, /var/spool/lp/admins/lp/.

To my knowledge every shred of evidence of that printer should be gone.
(It was previously called 11_HQ_GEN)  Now, when I set the printer back
up, I can't use the name 11_HQ_GEN again, because it says the object
still exists so it can't create the new local printer with that name.
Where to I remove the referece to that object (name) 11_HQ_GEN? so that
I can reinstall the printer with the same name?

appriciated!!

Thanks...

Before you buy.

Did you try /usr/lib/lpadmin -x 11_HQ_GEN before you went to
all this manual work?

If it's being done with hpnpcfg, did you look in
/var/spool/lp/admins/lp/interfaces/model.orig ?

Nope, I had never heard of that.  I'll try that out.

I didn't, but I did delete /var/spool/lp/admins/lp/interface/11_HQ_GEN
(for instance) and it still thought there was a printer with that name.
