A very wierd bug has cropped up from 3.8.2 to 3.8.4, my thanks to
Guy T. Rice <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> for pointing this out to
me.
Take a printcap like this:
lp|lj2100|HP LaserJet 2100TN:\
:sd=/var/spool/lpd/lj2100:rp=raw:rm=taurus:\
:sh:pw#80:pl#66:px#1440:mx#0:\
:if=/etc/magicfilter/psonly1200-filter:\
:af=/var/log/lp-acct:lf=/var/log/lp-errs:
lpq says this:
Printer: lp is raw@localhost
Printer: raw@wufei - ERROR: spool queue for 'raw' does not exist on server wufe
non-existent printer or you need to run 'checkpc -f'
lp is not raw@localhost, lp is raw@taurus !
But changing the printcap to below fixes it:
lp|raw|lj2100|HP LaserJet 2100TN:\
:sd=/var/spool/lpd/lj2100:rp=raw:rm=taurus:\
:sh:pw#80:pl#66:px#1440:mx#0:\
:if=/etc/magicfilter/psonly1200-filter:\
:af=/var/log/lp-acct:lf=/var/log/lp-errs:
See the raw is now included in the printcap entry?
I get lots and lots of reports about these problems. I don't know if it
is a lprng bug or a problem with the printcap. I'd love to have a
canned answer to people who have this configuration in their printcap.
Remember, the first printcap worked with 3.8.2
