Hello,
        I'm having trouble getting my printer to respond to any input from
the lpr command.  Currently I'm running slink and am using a HP DJ882c
printer.  I've been trying to use magicfilter, but only have the df550c
filter (this did work pretty well on the 1.3 release...bad resolution
though).  Anyhow, I'm using the same setup, but I don't get any response
from the printer when a job is sent to it.  If I lpr something then check
it with lpq, the status field is updated with the time of the print job.

My printcap looks like this:

lp|Generic dot-matrix printer entry
        :lp=/dev/lp1
        :sd=/var/spool/lpd/lp
        :if=/etc/magicfilter/dj550c-filter
        :af=/var/log/lp-acct
        :lf=/var/log/lp-errs
        :pl#66
        :pw#80
        :pc#150
        :mx#0
        :sh

If anyone has any ideas, that would be great.  I should mention that I'm
still pretty new at sys admin stuff, so any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Rob
