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.
