LPRng: jetdirect errors
I have a jetdirect J3111A card. It seems to constantly crash dump, even when NO print jobs are being sent to it. Yesterday, I updated the firmware using the jetadmin tool from HP. Still no improvement. This is exception 0004 firmware rev g.05.35 I don't think the register dump would be terrible useful but will post it if needed. The interface is plugged into an hp laserjet 4600 (color) but it seems that just sitting on the network will cause this. anyone have any advice? -- David Bear phone: 480-965-8257 fax:480-965-9189 College of Public Programs/ASU Wilson Hall 232 Tempe, AZ 85287-0803 Beware the IP portfolio, everyone will be suspect of trespassing - YOU MUST BE A LIST MEMBER IN ORDER TO POST TO THE LPRNG MAILING LIST The address you post from MUST be your subscription address If you need help, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] (or lprng-requests or lprng-digest-requests) with the word 'help' in the body.

LPRng: a bit off topic, but just a bit
I would like to put my printers on a private lan -- ie non-routed ip addresses. Then using lprng running on bsd spool jobs to them. While getting lprng to work doesn't present a challenge, I would like to be able to use the web management interfaces on these printers. So, I was thinking of some kind of proxy web server that I could also run along with lprng. The idea would be to rewrite incoming requests to lpserver.asu.edu/hp8100 to 192.168.10.10:80 and proxy them thru. I admit, this sound rather strange... but since we cannot really control our network here, I thought I would at least control the network in our rooms where our servers are. any comments form experience would be appreciated.. thanks. -- David Bear phone: 480-965-8257 fax:480-965-9189 College of Public Programs/ASU Wilson Hall 232 Tempe, AZ 85287-0803 Beware the IP portfolio, everyone will be suspect of trespassing - YOU MUST BE A LIST MEMBER IN ORDER TO POST TO THE LPRNG MAILING LIST The address you post from MUST be your subscription address If you need help, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] (or lprng-requests or lprng-digest-requests) with the word 'help' in the body.

LPRng: silly windows printer object
I'm trying to take a 'generic' windows printer object, and send its output to lprng via the windows tcpip print services. One thing that I've notices is that the 'generic' printer object seems to truncate output at column 112. This is rather unfortunate as I have 188 columns to print. Truncating appears consistent regardless of anything, ie there is no way to set margins, paper size, default font, etc (in the printer object) Anyone seen this?

LPRng: win2k print wierdness
This is the strangest error I have run across. We've been using lprng for 3 years? with NT4 clients, printing through samba to linux servers running lprng. I dont use ifhp as I never needed any kind of translation. The nt print drivers produced the postscript, when lprng happily send to the hp and phaser printers via appsocket. Enter win2000. As soon as we loaded up win2k box with all our apps, and attempt to print, we get continually postscript errors out the printers. Sometimes its a timeout error, sometimes its a stack error, sometimes its and undefined symbol. The point is, the error is NOT consistent for the same machine same print job, same application. (using wordperfect, word, and excel, and occasional pdf) We thought we had bad hardware. No, we reproduced it on a second box. so, we attempt different printing methods from the win2k box: 1) print direct to hp8100 via lpt1. works 2) print to file, the lpr the file to hp8100. BAD 3) print to file, copy file to lpt1. works 4) print to file, then netcat the file to hp8100. WORKS Now, I don't know what difference there is between netcating the postscript file to the printer and lpr'ing the file as passthrough to the printer. But, there's the rub. LPRng is doing something, and only to postscript generated by win2k clients Let me emphasize that we have had our samba server and lpr spooler setup for almost 3 years printing from NT 4 clients WITHOUT problem!! So, for the brave guru who would like to tell me what I've done wrong, I'm attaching the relevant portion of the printcap file. Also, a graphic to explain what I enumerated above. Can anyone tell me why win2k produced postscript would choke on my setup? # /etc/printcap .common: \ :force_localhost@:sh:mx=0 \ :filter=/usr/local/libexec/filters/ifhp .srvr: \ :sd=/var/spool/lpd/%P \ :lpd_bounce hp8100|PAC HP8100 DGM 1: \ :tc=.common \ :client \ :[EMAIL PROTECTED] hp8100: \ :server \ :tc=.srvr \ :rw:[EMAIL PROTECTED] pachp8100: \ :server \ :tc=.srvr \ :rw:lp=pachp8100.pp.asu.edu%9100 \ :oh=ppsrv3.pp.asu.edu -- David Bear College of Public Programs/ASU 480-965-8257 ...the way is like water, going where nobody wants it to go - YOU MUST BE A LIST MEMBER IN ORDER TO POST TO THE LPRNG MAILING LIST The address you post from MUST be your subscription address If you need help, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] (or lprng-requests or lprng-digest-requests) with the word 'help' in the body.

Re: LPRng: spooling to windows lpd
you didn't mention if this was 2000. On NT4, the following helped me. SYMPTOMS When a formatted job prints from a line printer remote (LPR) client to a Windows NT computer that is running the Line Printing Demon (LPD) services, PCL or PostScript codes are printed instead of a properly formatted document. RESOLUTION == The LPD service can be reconfigured to ignore the format control command from the LPR client and always assign the RAW datatype. Use one of the appropriate sections below to reconfigure the LPD service. NOTE: This setting is not available for a single printer. This setting affects all printers on the Windows NT Server that are receiving print jobs from LPR clients. Print jobs from non-LPR clients are not affected by this setting. Configuring SimulatePassThrough In Windows NT 4.0 - For Windows NT 4.0 to assign the RAW datatype, regardless of the control file contents, do the following: WARNING: Using Registry Editor incorrectly can cause serious, system- wide problems that may require you to reinstall Windows NT to correct them. Microsoft cannot guarantee that any problems resulting from the use of Registry Editor can be solved. Use this tool at your own risk. 1. Run Registry Editor (REGEDT32.EXE). 2. From the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE subtree, go to the following key: \SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\LPDSVC\Parameters 3. On the Edit menu, click Add Value. 4. Add the following: Value Name: SimulatePassThrough Data Type: REG_DWORD Data: 1 NOTE: The default value is 0, which informs LPD to assign datatypes according to the control commands.

Following is the text from Microsoft site The Windows NT LPD Service follows the RFC1179 specification. This states that the LPR client must tell the LPD server how to handle the print job. If the client formats the job, it must send the l control character to instruct the LPD server to print the job without any alteration. How can I make LPRng lpd server send 'l' character. Without this, windows lpd prints the actual postscript I sent to the lpd server. Here is my printcap entry.
