hi tuomas,
yes, i got the same problem here. (LPRng 3.7.4)
if you include some "prefix_z=..." options in the printcap, you'll
notice
that those options appear *twice* in the commandline for filter
invocation.
example:
using "prefix_z=portrait" and a queue name like "testi-a3"
will result in a filter invocation containing "-Zportrait,portrait," but
the a3 option is missing... :-(
(although "a3" *is* present in the Z line of the job control file and
portrait is there only *once*)
does anybody have a patch to correct this problem?
