To make it print from Netscape (or any PS stuff) add this to /etc/printcap (either make it the default ``lp'' entry or set the PRINTER envar to ``hpdj''): hpdj|deskjet|Hewlett Packard DeskJet 610C:\ :lp=/dev/lpt0:sh:sd=/var/spool/lpd/:mx#0:\ :if=/usr/local/libexec/hpif: The input filter, /usr/local/libexec/hpif, is this: #!/bin/sh # # hpif - Simple text input filter for lpd for HP-PCL based printers # Installed in /usr/local/libexec/hpif # # Simply copies stdin to stdout. Ignores all filter arguments. # Tells printer to treat LF as CR+LF.
