I have installed apsfilter and ran ./configure and ran thru the setup dialog, and installed ghostscript 6, both from the ports collection, and ran the setup on ghostscript. I can run lptest just fine. I have lpd running when I check top and when I try to print to lpr I get nothing, just entries in the print queue. When I run lpq I get a first line error - Warning: No daenom present Yet it is running when I look at top. I need to be able to have this so my wife can print from a dual boot linux/winblows machine, as well as my two sons' winblows machines. This is a Epson ColorStylus 400 connected to lpt1 on my FBSD box. I have gone thru the chapter on printing in The Complete FreeBSD and am stuck on the spooler not working. I've tried to print from a number of differant apps, including text and graphics. They all end up in the queue and stay there. Here is my printcap file - # LABEL apsfilter # apsfilter setup Mon Apr 10 21:11:06 PDT 2000 # # APS_BASEDIR:/usr/local/apsfilter # # ascii|lp1|stcolor-letter-ascii-mono|stcolor ascii mono:\ :lp=:\ :sd=/var/spool/lpd/stcolor-letter-ascii-mono:\ :lf=/var/spool/lpd/stcolor-letter-ascii-mono/log:\ :af=/var/spool/lpd/stcolor-letter-ascii-mono/acct:\ :if=/usr/local/apsfilter/filter/aps-stcolor-letter-ascii-mono:\ :mx#0:\ :sh: # lp2|stcolor-letter-auto-mono|stcolor auto mono:\ :lp=:\ :sd=/var/spool/lpd/stcolor-letter-auto-mono:\ :lf=/var/spool/lpd/stcolor-letter-auto-mono/log:\ :af=/var/spool/lpd/stcolor-letter-auto-mono/acct:\ :if=/usr/local/apsfilter/filter/aps-stcolor-letter-auto-mono:\ :mx#0:\ :sh: # lp3|stcolor-letter-ascii-color|stcolor ascii color:\ :lp=:\ :sd=/var/spool/lpd/stcolor-letter-ascii-color:\ :lf=/var/spool/lpd/stcolor-letter-ascii-color/log:\ :af=/var/spool/lpd/stcolor-letter-ascii-color/acct:\ :if=/usr/local/apsfilter/filter/aps-stcolor-letter-ascii-color:\ :mx#0:\ :sh: # lp|lp4|stcolor-letter-auto-color|stcolor auto color:\ :lp=:\ :sd=/var/spool/lpd/stcolor-letter-auto-color:\ :lf=/var/spool/lpd/stcolor-letter-auto-color/log:\ :af=/var/spool/lpd/stcolor-letter-auto-color/acct:\ :if=/usr/local/apsfilter/filter/aps-stcolor-letter-auto-color:\ :mx#0:\ :sh: # raw|lp5|stcolor-letter-raw|stcolor auto raw:\ :lp=:\ :sd=/var/spool/lpd/stcolor-raw:\ :lf=/var/spool/lpd/stcolor-raw/log:\ :af=/var/spool/lpd/stcolor-raw/acct:\ :if=/usr/local/apsfilter/filter/aps-stcolor-letter-raw:\ :mx#0:\ :sh: -- Chip www.wiegand.org ***** Visit my web site - Alternative Operating Systems - MS Windows isn't the only OS in town.
