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? -- Walter Garcia-Fontes Barcelona, Spain -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
