Hi all,
We have LPRng 3.8.10 and ifhp 3.5.7 running on Solaris 7, and can print
just fine to HP/Jetdirect printers and others. But for some reason
printing via AppleTalk fails to both Apple and HP printers (that normally
can do AppleTalk); they seem to issue PostScript errors about ^D.
netatalk is 1.4b2+asun2.1.4 from May 2000, and
"cat test.ps | /usr/local/bin/pap -e -p 'printer name'" works fine.
lpd_printcap contains:
iss
:tc=.cf_server
:cm=B327, LaserWriter Pro 630, ISS Group
:lp=| -$ /usr/local/bin/pap -e -p "iss - B317, LaserWriter Pro 630"
:ifhp=model=apple,debug=1
.cf_server
:server
:filter=/usr/local/libexec/filters/ifhp
:sd=/var/spool/lpd/%P
:mx=0
:mc=0
Adding ",ps_eoj@,ps_eoj_at_start@,ps_eoj_at_end@" to the end of the ifhp=
string doesn't help.
The "lpq -Piss -L" output is attached (where the first job has the default
ps_eoj* settings and the second has the ps_eoj*@ stuff).
Why would the printer be so upset about the ^D ?
Thanks for any help,
Rob Joyce
