Thanks for getting back to me! I'm afraid that I am not sure I
understand what you are suggesting though. If I use:
:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:\
It gives me a message saying that there is no printer named lp. Am I
supposed to be using a bounce queue named lp? Using the other entry:
:lp=frpoce01%515:\
works with some jobs, but complains with other jobs that there is no
printer named %-BBPIN. I thought that it was maybe stripping off the
character at the beginning of the file, which starts with ^[%-BBPIN. I
clearly do not understand what is going on here.
I would greatly appreaciate any suggestions.

I am having an issue plotting to an OCE 9300 plotter. I have setup
the
printcap for this (and all of our other plotter types, like an
HPDJ755CM) that looks like this:
frpoce01:\
:lp=frpoce01%515:\

Here's the problem. Use this instead:

The thing that listens on port 515 is an lpd emulator. It expects you
to
be sending print jobs according to the RFC 1179 protocol. The notation
lp=host%port doesn't use the RFC 1179 protocol, it just sends your
print
job directly to that port.
The notation [EMAIL PROTECTED] does use the RCF 1179 protocol.
The status that I get for this (in lpq.0) is:
Status: printing job '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' at 10:57:20.486

The strange thing about this is that I have had some success
plotting
to this from Solaris and Windows. But some documents don't seem to
go
through. I haven't been able to narrow it down to PS vs. HPGL, or
operating system , or the size of the image being plotted.
If anyone has had success plotting to an OCE plotter, can you give
me
some pointers?
