/dev/printer

[Craig Oda <craig@example.com>]

Hi,
on a working Linux machine I have 

niji:/dev$ ls -l printer
srwxrwxrwx   1 root     root            0 Dec  3 14:58 printer=
niji:/dev$ 


On a non-functional Linux machine I have:

[root@example.com /dev]# ls -l printer
ls: printer: No such file or directory


Does anyone know the proper command to create the printer device?

Thanks.  I feel that success is near.

Regards,
Craig
