I have an HP-Laserjet printer connected to a WinNT workstation with TCP/IP
printing service running. I have configured my FreeBSD box to use this
printer, and all users share this printer thrugh the BSD box. I also have
samba installed on the BSD box.
I want to get accounting information for all jobs sent to the printer. This
is how the entry in /etc/printcap looks :
rp|remote printer:\
:lp=:rm=hamsadhwani:rp=lipi:pw=80:pl=65:sd=/var/spool/lpd:\
:if=/usr/libexec/lpr/lpf:af=/var/spool/lpd/account:
According to the handbook, that's all it should take. But the following
command
pac -Prp
always gives this output :
Login pages/feet run price
total 0.00 0 $ 0.00
What is wrong ?
