The LPRng Version witch is entried in the newest moonbase ends up with this

I just saw the the Official LPRng Page is down, it is now hosted with a new Version called 3.8.A, so I will check this out....

Disclaimer: I have no printer attached to my Lunar box at home, so I have no experience with printing, but as there are no other suggestions...

Did you have any luck with trying 3.8.32 from the LPRng web site? If so, maybe you have a zlocal version you could submit?

If not, I notice that lprng conflicts with the cups module, so you might have more success installing cups instead.

Good luck!
