sorry make that an OJ700. if I pick the OJ600 from the list it complains:
: your gs version doesn't have
: driver hpdj compiled in...
:
: select another driver
: or build a new gs version
: with complete or customized
: driver support"
since the "driver" is ieee12844_print (or the wrapfilter), how can I rebuild
gs to compile the driver in? can anyone help?
thx - e

Subject: no OJ printers listed in apsfilter
I'm trying to install apsfilter but it needs to configure a printer. I have
an OJ600 which is not on the list. I cannot continue unless I pick a
printer but anything I pick would be wrong. where do I go from here?
I've installed the OJ drivers and created a "wrapfilter" as suggested in the
the PRINT-HOWTO. I have Ghostscript installed and am running on RH 6.2
thx - e

Subject: filters & "no daemon present"
I'm back. didn't get very far from last time :( I'm having a problem with
lpd.
root@beowulf:/ # lpc status
lp:
queuing is enabled
printing is enabled
1 entry in spool area
no daemon present
I found in the Linux Printing HOWTO guide (under the the "lpc and lpq
warning of missing daemons" section)
http://ftp.yggdrasil.com/bible/howtos/printing.html
that this condition (no daemon present) happens when a filter is broken.
the answer is to "fix" it and restart the daemon.
as I don't have apsfilter installed (do I need to install it?, can I not
just print with ieee12844_print?) my /etc/printcap looks like this:
lp:\
:sd=/var/spool/lpd/lp:\
:mx#0:\
:sh:\
:lp=/dev/null:\
:if=/usr/local/bin/ieee12844_print:
I took the PRINT-HOWTO's hint that "of" doesn't work and put it in "if" but
actually I've tried both without results. Here's proof that _print is
there:
root@beowulf:/usr/local/bin # ls ieee*
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 9552 Sep 3 10:32 ieee12844_print*
any help would be greatly appreciated:
