Hello.
I'm sorry if this is the wrong place to ask but I know of no other.
Has anybody managed to get printing on ARM Linux to work?
Since I have a PostScript printer this should be an easy task.
The device seams to work, if I do a
cat file.ps > /dev/lp2
the printer gets out the page correctly. However a
lpr file.ps
queues and spools the file correctly. Something then is sent to
the printer but the printer simply ignores it.
I checked that the spooled files is the same as the input file,
(the filter is not touching it) so I'm assuming that lpd is doing
something strange.
Is there a way to monitor what lpd is really transfering to the printer?
(I'm running a 2.0.35 kernel an a StrongARM Risc PC if that's
of any interest).
Thanks for your help.
Thomas
PS. You guys do a great job - thanks for bringing Linux to the ARM world.
