[-- Attachment #1 --] I still can't get it to work... freeBSD 4.2 release HP Deskjet 710C ( works in Windows, thus not broken :) ) This is what I've done: I have the correct entries in my kernel cfg file lpd IS running I installed apsfilter, ran SETUP, followed instructions... Tried different drivers. From previous advice I removed the one entry in /etc/printcap (which I have uploaded HERE) Tell me if something's wrong with it. When I run lptest > /etc/lpt0, nothing happens. When I try to print a test page in apsfilter, it says "could not open device" or something like that. When I type lpr filename, the job gets queued, but nothing gets printed. I DO have an /etc/lpt0 entry. Whats going on?
