Hello,

is there any successfull story about an PC with IR-dongle and
non-IR-printer at the parallel port accting as IR-printer?
I use the well-known Tekram 210B-dongle at ttyS1 und a HP Laserjet 6L at
lp0. Software consits of RedHat 6.2, Kernel 2.2.16 (no patch available ?)
und irda-utils 0.9.10.
I started the irmanager with -d 1 and -s 1 and then I use 
irattach /dev/ttyS1 -d tekram -s 1 to get the dongle working. Now I can
transfer files with irxfer (IROrbex) and login via getty listening on
/dev/ircomm0. The "ir-client" is a Toshiba-notebook.
Ok, til here everything works fine. Now I use 
irattach /dev/irlpt0 -s 1 to act my PC as "ir-printer". An irdadump on the
notebook says: Ok, there is Computer, Printer, Ircomm. But after an 
cat "file" > /dev/irlpt0 on the notebook nothing happens, except the
"irattach /dev/irlpt0 ..." crashes as I can see using irdadump.
Any suggestions, hints, ...

Thanks

Udo

P.S. Sorry for my ugly english
