As per windows FAQ, if you wish to spool to windows lpd server "l"
cahracter must be passed to windows lpd for passing the job directly to
printer. Following is the text from Microsoft site
"The Windows NT LPD Service follows the RFC1179 specification. This
states that the LPR client must tell the LPD server how to handle the
print job. If the client formats the job, it must send the "l" control
character to instruct the LPD server to print the job without any
alteration."
How can I make LPRng lpd server send 'l' character. Without this,
windows lpd prints the actual postscript I sent to the lpd server.
Here is my printcap entry. I am using LPRng-3.7.4:
hp|Hp Laserjet 6mp:\
:lpd_bounce:\
:rp=hp:lp=hp@pc:\
:af=/var/log/printer/acct:\
:lf=/var/log/printer/hp-errs:\
:sd=/var/spool/lpd/hp:\
:sh:\
:bk:\
:mx=0:ff_separator@:\
:if=/opt/ifhp/libexec/filters/ifhp -Tdebug=0 -Tmodel=hp6mp:
Thanks,
