Please help - I am new to SUN & am trying to set up for printing from
Solaris 1.1.1 to my Laserjet IIP. I set up the /etc/printcap as follows:
jetIIP|IIP|HP laserjet II P:\
:lp=/dev/ttyb:sd=/usr/spool/jetIIP:\
:ms=ixon,-parenb,cs8,-opost:\
:br#19200:\
:lf=/usr/spool/jetIIP/log:\
:st=/usr/spool/jetIIP/status:\
:sh:\
:cf=/home/linkage/bin/laserjet.cif:\
:if=/home/linkage/bin/laserjet.pf:\
When I send a file to be printed (using lpr -PjetIIP <filename>), I can see
using lpc that there is 1 entry in the spool area for about 2 seconds,
and then "no entries". Nothing comes out. I tried catting to /dev/ttyb
and nothing comes outs on the printer, but I do see something on the
transmit line.
Any, ANY hints, suggestions, etc. would be appreciated.
