On Slackware 8.1, I had printing (lpr/lprng) using a Canon BJC-210
working nicely. I did the upgrade to 9.0 and now I can not get it to
work no matter how or what I do. I then decided to setup printing on
another machine with a clean install of Slackware 9.0 and still no joy.
If I send a jop to the printer, I get the usual prompt that its
happening but nothing appears at the printer. If I issue "lprm -a" the
print job is listed and removed (as it should) I have lp0 detected at
boot and the bjc-210 is detected so that is not the problem (parport is
loaded) I can "cp somefile /dev/lp0" and it prints, but "lpr somefile"
renders absalutely nothing. Looking at my printcap file, the line:
:if=/etc/apsfilter/basedir/bin/apsfilter:\
does not look correct. Should this not point to:
/etc/apsfilter/canonbub/apsfilterrc ???
# APS2_BEGIN:printer2
canonbub:\
:af=/var/spool/lpd/canonbub/acct:\
:if=/etc/apsfilter/basedir/bin/apsfilter:\
:lf=/var/spool/lpd/canonbub/log:\
:lp=/dev/lp0:\
:mx#0:\
:sd=/var/spool/lpd/canonbub:\
:sh:
# APS2_END
TIA
