Editing DebuggingPrintingProblems

Notes from Trevor @ CARIS 031015: * a request will create a file in ... (unfinishedpage: document the dir here) /oracle/app/oracle/admin/lin/DBNAME/files/reports/ * a process called /request_sorter/ looks at the request and moves it to the queue directory for that type of request. The processor for each of of those is called a "mailer" (no matter what it does with the file.) * log files for the request_sorter and the "mailers" are in /oracle/app/oracle/admin/lin/DBNAME/logs/ == Solaris Printer == The lpr system is supposed to log to a couple of files in /var/lp/logs/, but it doesn't seem to. Log files are syslogged to mgmt1. Here is a successful print job from there (there is plenty more output - this was filtered out by grepping for the printer name and the job ID, 205.
