Hello.
I've found that the new version of lpr provided with cygutils-1.1.4 no longer works with my PostScript network printer. With the previous version of cygutils (1.1.3), I had to change the datatype provided to StartDocPrinter from "raw" to "RAW". This time, the trouble I've encounted wath this one :
$ ./lpr.exe lpr.1 lpr: printer error: StartDocPrinter error: Invalide descriptor $ uname -a CYGWIN_NT-5.0 hepatique 1.3.22(0.78/3/2) 2003-03-18 09:20 i686 unknown unknown Cygwin
After some searches, I've found a solution by changing the DesidedAccess of the PRINTER_DEFAULTS argument in OpenPrinter, from PRINTER_ALL_ACCESS to PRINTER_ACCESS_USE.
$ diff -urN Printer.cc.orig Printer.cc --- Printer.cc.orig 2003-06-11 05:01:58.000000000 +0200 +++ Printer.cc 2003-06-12 07:10:06.000000000 +0200 @@ -281,7 +281,7 @@
prDef.pDatatype = "RAW"; prDef.pDevMode = m_devMode; - prDef.DesiredAccess = PRINTER_ALL_ACCESS; + prDef.DesiredAccess = PRINTER_ACCESS_USE;
if (m_devHandle == INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE &&
!OpenPrinter(tstr(m_devName), &m_devHandle, &prDef))And now, it works perfectly for me.
Regards.
Gilles Civario.
