I had a remote printcap entry working 3, 3+ years ago, but
have forgotten the exact syntax (aka, magic) entry lines.
My printer HP Deskjet is on "tao"; the following is what I
have on my remote platform:
remote|Sample remote printer:\
:sh:\
:rm=tao.thought.org:sd=/var/spool/output/tao.thought.org:\
:lf=/var/log/lpd-errs:\
:if=/usr/local/libexec/hpif
Anybody see what I need to add? The missing "@" where the
dot is makes no difference. Either way, same:
zen# !lpr
lpr printcap
lpr: lp: unknown printer
zen#
Thanks for any insights.
gary
