Ye all,
Yet another question,
i am working on this printing thing. O.k. i am just trying to test out a simpl
e little 9pin epson. I am just using the /etc/printcap file and i uncommented
it.
o.k. the daemon is loaded in /etc/rc. now the printcap is calling for, or
refering to, lp=/dev/lp. Well when consulting the /dev directory i am
confirming what the daemon is tellling me. There is no file present. I have
some other lp* file , but no lp file. Any clues? Thanx much!
