Hello together, hello Patrick,

I have upgraded from lprng 3.6.12 to 3.6.23 and found that new option
"append_z" which is one of the things that should make life easier, but
now I am confused somehow...
Here are two printcaps, first for a client, second for the server:
----client----
hp3:client:lp=%P@coulomb:force_localhost@
 
hp2:client:lp=%P@coulomb:force_localhost@
 
hp1:client:lp=%P@coulomb:force_localhost@
---end of client---
---server---
hp3:tc=.hpx:append_z=tray3:cm=Schacht 3 - Altpapier
 
hp2:tc=.hpx:append_z=tray2:cm=Schacht 2
 
hp1:tc=.hpx:append_z=tray1:cm=seitlicher Einzug
 
hp:
  :filter=/usr/libexec/filters/ifhp
  :lpd_bounce
  :tc=.common
  :cm=HP Netzwerkdrucker (brahms)
  :lp=130.83.237.53%9100
  :ifhp=model=hp5simx
  :if=/usr/local/libexec/filters/ifhp
 
.hpx:
  :lp=hp@coulomb:force_localhost@
  :sd=/var/spool/lpd/%P
 
.common:
  :sh
  :mx=0
 
:sd=/var/spool/lpd/%P                                                                  
:                          
---end of server---

The intention was to choose the tray with name of the queue
and all works fine if we use "lpr -Php3 file" or  "lpr -Php3@coulomb
file"
on the client and "lpr -Php3@coulomb file" on the server.
There will be an entry in the cf...-file: Z,tray3,tray3
I don't know why lprng append ",tray" two times, but that is not the 
problem.
If I use "lpr -Php3 file" there is NO Z-entry at all!
It seems that lprng sends the file directly to "hp" without appending
anything and ignoring the hp3-queue-entries.
If I use force_localhost@ or lpd_bounce nothing changes...

lpq -a gives:
Printer: hp3 is hp@coulomb
Printer: hp@coulomb  'HP Netzwerkdrucker (brahms)' (printing disabled)
 Queue: no printable jobs in queue
 Status: job 'root@coulomb+560' removed at 21:38:43.183
 Filter_status: done at 21:38:43.164
Printer: hp2 is hp@coulomb
Printer: hp1 is
hp@coulomb                                                     
Printer: hp3 is hp@coulomb

Any help requested...

Thomas
