Hello,
I'm using the following packages: LPRng-3.8.12-1 and ifhp-3.5.8-1.
I'm trying to print the example file 'testpage.ps'. I've shaped my
printer, that is a Epson Stylus Color 600.
When I run 'lpr testpage.ps' the LPRng makes his work. I know it because
I've checked the process with the 'lpq -v' command. But later the document
doesn't go to the printer; It is only written into the file '@DEVFD3'. Why
doesn't it go to the printer?
I know that the conversion process is well, because if I run 'cat @DEVFD3
> /dev/lp0' I obtain the document in the printer.
I'm using the following printcap file:
Epson600|impresora|lp:
:rw:lp=/dev/lp0
:sd=/var/spool/lpd/Epson600
:lf=/var/spool/lpd/Epson600/errs
:filter=/usr/libexec/filters/ifhp
:ifhp=model=stc600pl.upp,status@
:mx#0
:ff_separator@
:sh:
:force_localhost
Briefly, I'm obtaining the following lines when I run the lpq command:

What is wrong?
Another thing. I think that the lpq command has a bug because, as you can
see, the output is not in order. Furthermore, the output of a job is mixed
with the output of other jobs.
Thank you, and sorry for my poor english.
