[hpoj-devel] Officejet G55 printing

[Erik H. <hen...@ho...>]

Hi there,

First of all a big THANK YOU to the developers for this driver.

Now, I'm having problems to get this to print.

I installed :
APSFILTER
A2PS
Ghostscript
and offcourse the 0.6 HPOJ driver

The driver seems to be working fine since I can get the status of my 
printer.
But when I try to print something nothing happens.

My printcap file is as follow :

# /etc/printcap
#
# Please don't edit this file directly unless you know what you are doing!
# Be warned that the control-panel printtool requires a very strict format!
# Look at the printcap(5) man page for more info.
#
# This file can be edited with the printtool in the control-panel.

    :if=/root/linux/rpms/apsfilter/filter/aps2-deskjet--raw:\
    :mx#0:\
    :sh:
# APS1_END - don't delete this END LABEL for printer1

I created the apsfilterrc.deskjet file in my /etc directory.
This file contains the following line :
REMOTE_PRINTER="/usr/local/bin/ieee12844_print"

I also created the wrapfilter program and made it executable.
This file is located in : /var/spool/lpd/lp0

As far as I can see everything is allright. But it isn't since I can't 
print. The big question now is what is wrong?

Any help is REALLY appreciated.

Thank you.
