Hi Terry Mackintosh!
Maybe this will help you...
> Hi all Could someone email me a working printcap file for an HP
> LJ6L or similar printer? (Local printer, Linux, 2.4.2 kernel)
printcap entry:
hp6l:
:cm=hp6l
:lp=/dev/lp0
:ifhp=model=hp6l,status@
:if=/.../ifhp/libexec/filters/ifhp
:lf=/var/log/lpd/%P
:sd=/var/spool/lpd/%P
:mx=0
:mc=100
:max_log_file_size=2048
:sh
:sb
:rp=hp6l
:rm=host.domain
modified ifhp.conf:
[ hp4l hp5l hp6l ]
file_output_match = [
*postscript* pcl /.../gs -q -dBATCH -sPAPERSIZE=a4 -sDEVICE=ljet4 -dNOPAUSE
-r600 -sOutputFile=- -
*pcl* pcl
*pjl* pjl
*printer*job*language* pjl
*text* pcl
]
pjl_except=[ ...
With this modified ifhp.conf you should be able to print graphics, too.
> And what BIOS settings are used for the parellel port (SPP, EPP,
> ECP)?
EPP+ECP but caused by status@ it's unimportant.
