I have a HP LJ5M connected directly to the network.
I configured everything as described in HowTo and on THAT day it worked
fine!
After rebooting my computer I can:
telnet to the printer and change any parameters I wish.
check with lpq that:
Printer: lj-5 is [EMAIL PROTECTED]
JetDirect lpd: no entries
but I can't:
print.
All I get is a page with 2-3 lines of pure text (with the "staircase
effect"), even though I send it as PostScript.
Can anybody help me with that?
My `/etc/printcap' is attached.
