Digging a bit further, I have found something interesting in the /var/lp/log/requests file. Entries that are printed locally and successfull look like this: = epson890-38, uid 71, gid 8, size 122450, 17 June 2008 9:18:20 PM x /usr/bin/a2ps -q -c -B -o- -1 z epson890 C 1 D epson890 F /var/spool/lp/tmp/localhost/38-1 H resume O nobanner media=Letter, job-priority=20, PageSize=A4 P 20 T 38-1 t raw U jp s 0x0014 And entries recieved by IPP look like this: = epson890-39, uid 71, gid 8, size 573105, 17 June 2008 9:22:45 PM x /usr/bin/a2ps -q -c -B -o- -1 z epson890 C 1 D epson890 F /var/spool/lp/tmp/localhost/39-1 O nobanner P 20 T 39-1 t simple U jp s 0x0014 The main difference being t=raw when it works t=simple when it doesn't. Will this make a difference? If so, how do I change IPP so that t=raw? Cheers, JP This message posted from opensolaris.org
