Actually, that's exactly what I did (and it worked fine).  I meant to post
an update on the list, but never had a chance to.

I have a side note, but will post that seperately

Yes, most likely.  It seems to work with most other terminal servers.

Try:

  lp:lp=els%8000
:sd=/var/spool/lpd/%P

LPRng: Equinox ELS ports

2001-11-21 Thread Bradley Hartin


Has anyone here used LPRng under Linux to successfully print to serial
printers attached to an Equinox ELS terminal server?

The rprint utility is, as of yet, unavailable for Linux.  Will setting up
a reverse telnet service (set service printer 8000 port 8 telnet enabled)
and printing directly to that port (rp=els%8000) work?

Unfortunately, I have not had time to play with it myself, and will not
have time for some weeks to come, so I'm hoping someone else can at least
give me a heads up as to whether or not this will work.

Thanks,
