O.K. let me put it this way. I have an Okidata 6e laser printer which has an HP4 emulation. If I set the printer up as HP4 in Windoze and restart the PC with Freebsd, I can print using apsfilter which has been configured with an HP4 as one of the printers. If I turn off the Okidata 6e and turn it on, then I must run Windoze to initialize the printer to the HP4 mode. If I don't, when I send a print job to the printer the activity light blinks, however, no print is done. I think some initiialization string must be sent to the 6e from Windoze, but I don't have a clue what it might be. I called Okidata but the know nothing help desk person didn't even know what I was talking about. So, once again, does anyone out there have any experience, resolution, or idea on this. Please respond directly, I no longer subscribe to the questions list. Thanks, T.K. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
