Ok, I cut and pasted the printcap you sent me exactly (except I fixed
the indentation on the ifhp line because it bugged me). I put the stock
ifhp.conf back in place, and modified it thusly:
root@printhost</lprng/etc># !diff
diff ifhp.conf /lprng/src/ifhp/ifhp-3.3.19/ifhp.conf
1280c1280
< forceconversion
---
> forceconversion@
1287d1286
< *jpeg* ps /lprng/bin/jpgtops
root@printhost</lprng/etc>#
I also tried setting pcl@, pjc@, text@, and default_language=ps, but
that didn't have any effect either. My ifhp version is 3.3.19. My
LPRng version seems to currently be 3.6.2, though I forget exactly why I
am currently using that version.
Anyway, I send a jpeg to the printer, and I get pages of cruft. I can't
seem to find any way to get useful debugging infomation out of ifhp,
either. Sigh. Any help will be appreciated, and I could be persuaded
to compensate someone with homemade chocolate chip cookies. :)
I try printing, as such:
wcolburn@mailhost<~>$ /usr/bin/file ~/images/DSCN10817.JPG
/u/wcolburn/images/DSCN10817.JPG: JPEG image data
wcolburn@mailhost<~>$ lpr -Pprint-test -h < ~/images/DSCN10817.JPG
And I end up with a thick stack of pages with garbage on the first line
of each.
