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 ?
