Subject: Parallel Port LPRng
Date: Wed, 27 Feb 2002 07:37:00 -0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20020227161745.A511@upf.es> (raw)
I've been trying to install Bakkens LPRng port. I can't print to a printer
attached to the parallel port of my system. There was some discussion on this
on Nov. 2001:
http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2001-11/msg01015.html
http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2001-11/msg01054.html
but the discussion died just there.
I've tried different printcap files such as:
lp
:lp=/lpt
:sh
:mx=0
:sd=/var/spool/%P
or
lp
:lp=prt
:sh
:mx=0
:sd=/var/spool/%P
but it doesn't work (lpr and lpd don't produce any error, it's as if the file
is delivered, but no output comes from the printer).
Anybody has this working on a parallel printer?
