Does anybody have a HP Laserjet 4L on there FreeBSD box? I have configured my printer the way the FreeBSD handbook says to do i.e." edit your /etc/printcap and create a text filter. Well it prints like a dream the line feeds are perfect carriage returns are perfect but it prints way to dam slow. A paragraph take 15 minutes. My printcap and text filter is as follows. text filter.. printf "\033&k2G" && printf "\" && exit 0 exit 2 printcap... lp|HP|Laserjet|Hewlett Packard| Laserjet 4L:\ :lp=/dev/lpt0:sh:sd=/var/spool/lpd/output/lpd:mx#0:\ :if=/usr/local/libexec/hplaser: I was wondering if thats an incorrect escape sequence? Ps: My printer only has 1 meg.. But I don't think thats why its printing so slow. Thanks Mitch..
