Can't print just one!

Can't print just one!

I have been having some trouble printing to a Netware printer
with Mandrake versions 6.1, 7.0 and 7.1. After reading the
"NetwarePrinting" post this evening from Linux-Mandrake.OS I
decided to reinstall the Lpr, Printtool, and RHS-printfilter
RPM's from MD 6.0. MD 6.0 was the first release I tried and I was
able to print to a Netware server after many printer set up
attempts. After installing these RPM's and a re-boot I am able to
print over the network. However, I always get two copies. I have
made sure that 1 page per output has been checked using
Printtool. I would configure a local printer to test its output
but the last time I did Netware printing stopped working
completely. Here is my printcap. I am still very new at this and
have no idea what to check. There has only been one reply from
Linux-Mandrake.OS so I thought I would ask here. Please pass
along any ideas.

Thanks,
Charles
