> Subject: LPRng: spooling to windows lpd
>
> 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,

>
> Here is my printcap entry. I am using LPRng-3.7.4:
