Hello,
I am currently trying to get an Apple LaserWrite 12/640 PS to
print text files over the network. Currently the job will die silently.
When I ran the text file through ifhp to see what came out I found that it
created a postscript file with "^D" at the beginning and end of the
document. After I deleted the "^D"'s from the file the file printed. I
also have run the file through a2ps, the filter ifhp uses, and the output
was a straight post script file. I believe that this is an error in ifhp
and that the "^D" at the beginning causes the printer to believe that
there is nothing to print. Is this correct, amd if so how can I fix it?
The printer is able to print out anything but text, thus I believe that
the printcap is correctly set up.
Thank you for your time.
