I tried on Lexmark Optra S 1255 and HP LaserJet 5SI Mopier (printserver :
Linux Redhat 6.2). Logs are attached. I think ıt worked for mopier.(I saw
Tray 2 Open at the mopier log .When I was doing the test Tray 2 was open.)

a) download the latest ifhp beta:
ftp://ftp.astart.com/pub/LPRng/private/ifhp-*.tgz
b) compile, etc. the code:
tar zxvf ifhp-*.tgz
cd ifhp-*
configure; make
DO NOT INSTALL THIS VERSION..!!!
c) put the following script into /tmp/send:
#!/bin/sh
DEV=/dev/lp0 <- replace with your parallel port device
FILE=/tmp/one.ps
./ifhp -Tdev=$DEV,trace,debug=2 <$FILE 2>&1 | tee /tmp/log
d) copy ifhp/UTILS/one.ps to /tmp
e) Make sure that you can read status back from the parallel port.
If you have linux, then you should be able to use the
/proc/sys/parport/0/autoprobe file for information.
You can also try
insmod parport_probe
and see what happens. You should get status.
f) Now do:
sh /tmp/send
And watch the output... horrible... but it will (hopefully) show you
that it is reading status from the parallel port.
log.lexmark
log.mopier
