OK, I have found the problem(s). Apparently I cannot read my own documentation,
and tried to read from a file that was closed. Sigh.
By the way, I have some minor suggestions:
printer_name|PRINTER_NAME:client:lpr_bounce:lp=printer_name@localhost
^^^^^^ remove this
Result:
printer_name|PRINTER_NAME:client:lp=printer_name@localhost
You will also not need the stuff in the .printer-ip for connections to localhost or
even
connections to remote systems.
printer_name|PRINTER_NAME:server:tc=.printer-ip
:ab:bs=/usr/local/libexec/filters/pclbanner
:filter=/usr/local/libexec/filters/ifhp
:of=/usr/local/libexec/filters/ofhp:lp=ip.of.printer%9100
.printer-ip
:sd=/var/tmp/LPD/%P
:chooser=/usr/local/eprint/bin/poll_printer.pl
:connect_grace=10
:network_connect_grace=10
Yes, yes, I know that the : at the end is OK, but it is VERY confusing,
and you only need to drop one :\ and you screw up... as I did while
testing.
