What I would like to to is have LPRng to perform file conversion and pass
postscript to the other (Dazel) system. Could someone explain what is
wrong in the following printcap entry that would cause the Dazel print
server to die

#LPRNGTOOL## REMOTE 
dazel|printer
:lp=printer@dazels
:sd=/var/spool/lpd/%P
:lpd_bounce:client
:of=/usr/local/libexec/filters/ifhp
:ifhp=model=ps,status@,forceprocessing
:filter=/usr/local/libexec/filters/ifhp
:ab:ml=0:mx#0:rw 
:

The file is converted to postscript and sent to Dazel, because I see the
df file in the spool directory remote system, and it has been converted to
postscript.
