Re: printcap format, was: Re: LPRng: filter question
LPRng supports both types of line endings. The ":\" line ending is needed by Berkeley lpd, but I think Patrick advises against it.

Re: LPRng: Comparing Processing time of printjobs between LPRng andSysV
Using the ifhp option (i.e. printing to port 9100) gives you a lot of information versus just pumping it directly to the LPD daemon on the printer, but it is quite a bit slower. With status, sync, and pagecount turned on on our printers, we take an average of 45 seconds per job when multiple small jobs are sent to the printer, versus about 10 seconds when sending it directly to port 515.

Our users are printing HPGL and Post Script to 8000 series HPs.They are claiming that the LPRng print jobs "feel like they are coming out slower". and unfortunately I'm at a loss as to how to supply them with quantifiable data.

LPRng: Desperatly needing help!!!!
Title: Desperatly needing help Hi, I have installed LPRng-3.7.4 on RedHat 7. I created the printcap entry with RedHat's printtool. Then I runed the checkpc -f command. I have also installed the ifhp filters but I do not hae the time to read its long documentation because this project is needed ASAP. The problem is that as you can see in the logs section, I am getting a: Status: consig1: Open_gdbm: cannot lock 'db.consig1' - Interrupted system call at 14:29:06.915 Usually the first print job will print, but then it will take a very, very long time to print the next one, and so on. I have checked the speed at which poscscript is processed in this machine, but that is no problem (it only takes a few seconds). I tweaked my /etc/ printcap with no luck.

Title: FW: Desperatly needing help I am sorry to have sent this double. I sent it once and because I did not see it posted (in a long time) I thought I had sent it to the wrong address so I tried another one! I have been reading the release notes on LPRng 3.7.4 where it says: ARGH ARGH ARGH... I fixed a problem with signals (SIGINT) killing off the process waiting for a lock on a file descriptor, but I did it wrong. (Pointed out most gleefully, complete with TRUSS output by: Doug Morris [EMAIL PROTECTED] AND John Perkins [EMAIL PROTECTED]) I guess this might be it. I did not point out that I am using ghostscript to do the postscript to PCL conversion, but I guess you guys have figured that out.
