Check /etc/dosemu/dosemu.conf
Look for the printer section and make sure it looks somethign like this:-
############################################################################## ## Printer settings
# list of (/etc/printcap) printer names to appear as LPT1, LPT2, LPT3 # (not all are needed, empty for none). Default: "lp" # use "" if you want the printer_command (below) free-form (LPT1 only)
$_printer = "pr-fra19"
# Print command to use. Default: "lpr", for "lpr -P printername". # Sometimes (with CUPS) "lpr -l" is necessary.
$_printer_command = "lpr -l"
# idle time in seconds before spooling out. Default: (20)
# $_printer_timeout = (20)

Hi list,
I have problems while using lprng with dosemu 1.3.1. In my printcap I have added the following lines:
pr-fra19|remote printer on pr-fra19:\ :sd=/var/spool/lpd/pr-fra19:\ :rm=pr-fra19:\ :rp=text:\ :bk:sh:mx#0:
The dosemu.conf looks like:
$_printer = "pr-fra19" $_printer_command = "lpr"
But when I try to print from a application running underdosemu, nothing happens. So I have started the dosemu with a logfile (dosemu.bin +D-a+w+p -o /tmp/dos.log) and found following lines:
LPT: initializing printer <<NODEV>> LPT: initializing printer <<NODEV>> LPT: initializing printer <<NODEV>> LPT: print to non-defined printer LPT3 LPT: print to non-defined printer LPT2 LPT: init printer 0
The printer is plugged on a printbox, that is connected via ethernet with the LAN A testprint from linux (lpr -Ppr-fra19 /etc/xxx) works fine.
Hope someone can help me to fix this problem. A running dosemu (1.1.3-5) works fine under SuSE 7.2 / 2.4.16. But now we have to use SLES9 from SuSE with Kernel 2.6.5-XXX.
lpr command should be "lpr -l" if you are using cups
Hi out there,
no, I am using lprng in Version 3.9.x. I have tried out lpr -l but nothing happens.
Are the entries in the debuglog (LPT: initializing printer <<NODEV>>) ok ?
