For the past few days ive been attempting to set up my printer and i've
had no luck. I have a HP Deskjet 3420, "ulpt0: hp deskjet 3420, rev
2.00/1.00, addr 3, iclass 7/1". This morning i set up my /etc/printcap
like this:
# HP Deskjet 3420
lp|lj|HP Deskjet 3420:\
:lp=/dev/ulpt0:sd=/var/spool/lpd:\
:lf=/var/log/lpd-errs:sh:mx#0:\
:if=/usr/local/libexec/lpfilter:\
I also edited my /etc/rc.conf to
lpd_enable="YES"
And then i rebooted and tried to print something: cat /etc/rc.conf >
/dev/ulpt0
And nothing printed. Any suggestions on what i'm doing wrong?
