I wouldn't put this to sleep quite yet. Be patient, sometimes the mail is
slow.
We currently have Solaris, OSX, Windows 2000(direct through lpr) and Mac
OS including OSX all
printing through lprng. 
here is a sample printcap I use:(Not claiming it to be 100 percent by the
book but it works for me)
lp34|color printer in lab  ----- name of the printer
:lp=132.239.27.126%9100:\ ------ ip and port
:sd=/var/spool/lpd/%P:\  -----directory holding files
:ifhp=model=phaser740, appsocket dev=132.239.27.126%9100:\ --ifhp info
(appsocket for phaser, not required on those not running on appsockets)
:as=|/var/local/etc/accounting.pl start:\ --accounting file parser
:ae=|/var/local/etc/accounting.pl end:\  --accounting file parser
:if=/var/local/libexec/filters/ifhp:\ --filter
:af=/var/spool/lpd/lp34/acct: --acct file itself


Thanks,

Phil

YOU MUST BE A LIST MEMBER IN ORDER TO POST TO THE LPRNG MAILING LIST
The address you post from MUST be your subscription address

If you need help, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] (or lprng-requests
or lprng-digest-requests) with the word 'help' in the body.  For the impatient,
to subscribe to a list with name LIST,  send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
with:                           | example:
subscribe LIST <mailaddr>       |  subscribe lprng-digest [EMAIL PROTECTED]
unsubscribe LIST <mailaddr>     |  unsubscribe lprng [EMAIL PROTECTED]

If you have major problems,  send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word
LPRNGLIST in the SUBJECT line.
