i was migrating my old document composition software from SLES9 to Ubuntu Server 12.04 i386.

Everything was working fine until I tried to print from the ERP Environment (HP-UX v11.11) to my new print server in Ubuntu. The printing requests are not transferred from the HP-UX printing spooler queue to the new print-server. I think it could be the missing lpd socket (Port 515) which is not available on the new machine. I don't see it listing on the port (netstat -lpn).

I searched on Google for any soulutions, but I can't find anything that works.

Does anyone know what I have to do so that I can use the lpd protocol like in the old SLES9 distribution where it works fine at the moment?

I tried to install lpr but it doesn't open a listening Port on 515.
