I can't find this printer in the list of supported printers
(ifhp ... HOWTO...)
Which model type can I use ???
I have following problem:
::::::::::::::::::::::::::
Because I couldn't find the exact model type I had configured
a queue for the new printer using model type "hp8100"
(We are already using such printers successfull!)
printcap-entry:
queue_name
:lp=xxx.xx.xx.xxx%9100
:ifhp=model=hp8100,status,sync
:sd=/var/spool/lpd/queue_name
:if=/usr/libexec/filters/ifhp
:bp=/usr/libexec/filters/pclbanner
:lf=log
:mx#0:ab
ifhp.conf-entry:
[hp8100]
pcl
ps
text
pjl
file_output_match = [
*postscript* ps
*text* ps /usr/bin/a2ps -q --portrait --margin -1 -b \
-j --center-title=\%s{f} -u [EMAIL PROTECTED] -M A4 -o-
]
For accounting we are using a modified version of the delivered
accounting.sh script.
The outputs of the printer are ok.
But the accounting values are often "bad" - getting (p) 0 but
1 or 2 pages were printed...
I think I had this problem already had (??? with a printer HP4100 ???)
I believe the accounting.sh script gets the end of the job earlier than
the real end ... reading of pagecounter by the accounting filter gets than
(p) 0 or less pages as really would be printed (?)
What can I do???
::::::::::::::::::
>>> getting status-,pagecount-infrmations by using snmp tools ???
>>> other possibilities ???
