Dear lists,
I think I have a pretty good handle on my printer, buutttt..... the
standard printcap file's text will only print one laddered line on a
page. So I looked at FreeBSD's instructions, but they are not quite the
same. It is an older HPLaserJetSeries 2. The original printcap was:
lp|Generic dot-matrix printer entry:\
: lp=/dev/lp0;\
:sd=/var/spool/lpd/lp:\
:af=/var/log/lp-acct:\
:lf=/var/log/lp-errs:\
:pl#66:\
:pw#80:\
:pc#150:\
:mx#0:\
:sh: I changed this to:
fugger|lp|HPLaserJetSeries2
sh:sd=/var/spool/lpd/fugger:\
:lp=/dev/lp0
:if=/usr/local/libexec/if-simple;\
where if-simple transfers text from stdin to stdout
Would someone send me some tweaks so I can print ?? I've only had this
"potato" less than a week and UNIX is my preferred C programming tool,
but I'm stuck and I guess I'll have to use Visual C++ for a while
because I can print long programs to debug.
Thank you gentlemen and ladies !! Johnny
