oops! sorry, didnt even occur to me that you might be using a
local printer rather than a remote. try this one, the printer is an hp
laser 4m with postscript (have to check the face plate at
work--postscript for sure.)
lp|local line printer:\
:lp=/dev/lpt0:sd=/var/spool/lpd:lf=/var/log/lpd-errs:sb:sh:mx#0:
jmb
note: only lp: and rm: HAVE to be changed. lp: local device, rm: remote
device
try a small postscript doc first, just in case it blows the
postscript onto the paper rather than executing it.
