I have a Debian linux box with a HP LJ 1100 connected to the parallel port. From local machine print works fine.
Now I want to send print job from a Mac OS X iBook to the Linux box. It turns out that the lpd pass the spool file (generic postscript) directly to the printer. How do I configure lprng to make it pass the filter first? I am using LPRng 3.8.2. Following are my printcap: # This file was generated by /usr/sbin/magicfilterconfig. # laser|lp|HP LJ 1100: :lp=/dev/lp0:sd=/var/spool/lpd/laser: :sh:pw#80:pl#66:px#1440:mx#0: :if=/etc/magicfilter/ljet4-filter: :af=/var/log/lp-acct:lf=/var/log/lp-errs: I tried adding ":filter=/det/magicfilter/ljet4-filter:", it did not help. Thanks for your help. Dong
