Hi I'm trying to set up my HP DeskJet 500 printer off a FreeBSD box. It connected to the parallel port, and I'm using the following /etc/printcap entry : lp|djet500:\ :lp=/dev/lpt0:sd=/var/spool/lpd:lf=/var/log/lpd-errs:sh:sf:fs#2020: Unfortunately, I can't get the printer to print text properly. The Deskjet needs a CRLF combination to do a what UN*X does with just the LF. I tried the above `fs' entry to try and cure the problem, but it still doesn't work. What do I need to do to get this working? Thanks Gary
