I don't know if it is with all kyocera printers but I was helping someone just yesterday with a Kyocera 1010 parallel/firewire ? laserprinter( fairly new)
It seemed to require a string to be sent to the printer to switch it into postscript mode.
This was the line for that was echo -en '!R! FRPO P1, 9; EXIT' > /dev/usblp0
www.linuxprinting.org had the FAQ the FS-1010

Hi all, I have a need to print to a remote samba printer. The printer itself is a Kyocera FS-1800 -- a postscript printer. The problem is that the postscript files are being printed as postscript source instead of a rendered page.
I am using smbclient for printing. I tried the following command (amongst other things) but I must be missing something.
cat file.ps | smbclient //server/printer -P -N -c 'print -'
Can anyone tell me what I've done wrong. Please don't suggest using cups or lpr -- samba tools like smbclient is all I've got.
Thanks in advance.
