You might try to specify writable file on the file system as the printer device so that you could collect the ifhp output. Then you can try to send this file to your HP8100 directly using either ftp or the lightweight version of LPRng's lpr (so that your file doesn't have to go through LPRng and ifhp again) and see what happens. We haven't had 79.00FE errors for a while now (other that this odd problem which was apparently caused by a wedged printing system on a Solaris box) and we have three or four win2k clients that regularly use our HP8150DN printers. I noticed that our printcap entry is different from yours. Ours looks like this: .public :filter=/local/sol/2.6/depot/ifhp-3.5.10/libexec/filters/ifhp :sd=/home/spool/lprng/%P hp1 :cm=Public HP 8150DN in 708C Evans :ifhp=model=hp8150,duplex :lp=kronecker%9100 :tc=.public I am not sure if this is going to make a big difference. Note that we tell ifhp what model our printer is. I believe, by default, ifhp assumes your printer is some older LaserJet model. Again, I am not sure if this is going to make a big difference though. -akop ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- 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.
