Hi Everyone;
Last night I spent a good few hours trying to configure my printer. I used
the standard lptest > /dev/lpt0 and got a decent looking line of fonts
printed on my page. I then tried to activate and use a spool. It didnt work.
when I did lptest | lpr the page came out the printer, but there
was nothing on it.
I have a Dell Dimension XPS, 20 Gig HDD, 192 Meg RAM. The printer is a NEC
Superscript 870 Laser printer.
Are there any kind spirits out there who are prepared to help fellow homo
sapien that is in desperate need of some FreeBSD guidance??
Thanks !!!!!!!
:-)
Uriel
Following is the contents of /etc/printcap:
lp|local line printer:\
:sh:\
:lp=/dev/lpt0:sd=/var/spool/output/lpd:lf=/var/log/lpd-errs:sh:mx#0
:if=/usr/local/libexec/lpfilter:
:lf=/usr/local/libexec/lpfilter:\
:lf=/var/log/lpd.log:
lpfilter is a script that I copied from Greg Lehey's book.
Following is the outputs from the /var/log/lpd-errs file.
