I am having a problem trying to get this printer to work. I cannot seem to get
it to print any jobs. It does not use the 9100 port so i tried using
raw@printer, which managed to print a test page, although it did take about 3
minutes for my window to respond. I also got no end entry in the accounting
file.
i have tried using differnt filter models such as apple, or default which seem
to give differing results. At one point i tried printing a postscript files and
got pages of raw postscript from the printer.
the current printcap entry is as follows:
epson5000-qa:\
:lp=epson5000-qa%515:\
:sd=/var/spool/lpd/%P\
:ifhp=model=default,status@\
:filter=/usr/local/libexec/filters/ifhp\
:af=/var/log/printing\
:as=/usr/local/libexec/accounting.pl start\
:ae=/usr/local/libexec/accounting.pl end
I am sure that there is probably something wrong with it. When printing the
status gives the following output:
su-2.05# lpq -Pepson5000-qa
Printer: epson5000-qa@ps1-cam
Queue: no printable jobs in queue
Status: removing job 'cfA113ps1-cam.cam.harlequin.co.uk' - ABORT at
14:54:26.200
Filter_status: job failed during copy - Broken pipe at 14:54:26.068
i am running lprng-3.7.4 with ifhp-3.4.5
I am stuck as to where to proceed next. All my other printers are working
including, epson's, HP's and apple printers, any ideas would be gratefully
recieved
Thanks
James
