What command line are you using? What is in > /etc/printcap? I'm not using a specific command line but the apsfilter script in an xterm. In this script you can select some options like the driver and resolution etc. and at the end it generates a printcap file. The only thing I need to change is the setup of the interface, which changes from parallel to network. When I do this I have to enter the IP address (10.0.0.152) and the printer name (raw). The script also provides the option to print a test page, it does this with: gs -q -dBATCH -dNOPAUSE -dSAFER -r600x600 -sDEVICE=lj5gray -sPAPERSIZE=a4 -sOutputFile='/tmp/apsfilter5808/test_page.aps' setup/test.ps The error message is: -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 5518752 May 4 18:23 /tmp/apsfilter5808/test_page.aps lpr: raw@10.0.0.152: unknown printer When I change hostname or printername it doesn't have any effect. My printcap at this moment is the same as the original one that comes with FreeBSD, with all lines marked out, because apsfilter has not generated a new printcap yet. I have attached the printcap file that is generated when I do install it with the not working settings. > -Warren Block * Rapid City, South Dakota USA > > > To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org > with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message > Marco -- Second Law of Business Meetings: If there are two possible ways to spell a person's name, you will pick the wrong one.
