Hi
I am running into a problem with stair-printing, and I hope someone has
solved this before.
I am using LPRng-3.6.21
I am printing from a number of clients to a spool on a server, and the
printing is then sent on to the printer.
I cannot get the client to print out text except in stairs, but ps works.
The printcap on the client is :
# this is printcap for print clients
lp:client:lp=lp@ip_add_of_server
:force_localhost@
The printcap of the server is
# /etc/printcap
lp|ug-printer
:sd=/var/spool/lpd/ug-printer:\
:mx=0:\
:sh:\
:lp=lp@ip_add_of_printer
:lpr_bounce
:ifhp=model=hp5000
:filter=/usr/libexec/filters/ifhp
:of=/usr/libexec/filters/ifhp
:lf=log:af=acct
Note: The server prints out both text and ps, pdf etc. However, if I
comment out the line :lpr_bounce
then the text comes out in stairs.
Lastly, if I configure the clients to have spools, and add lpr_bounce and
filters, then the printing from the clients works, but then I won't be
able to get the accounting to do what I want.
Thank you for your time.
