Hi there, First of all a big THANK YOU to the developers for this driver. But sadly enough, I'm having some problems getting the driver to work. So if anyone would be so kind to tell me what to do or what I did wrong. Thank you. 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. ##PRINTTOOL3## LOCAL lp0: :sd=/var/spool/lpd/lp0: :mx#0: :sh: :lp=/dev/lp0: :if=/var/spool/lpd/lp0/wrapfilter: # LABEL apsfilter # apsfilter setup Fri Sep 22 01:39:21 PDT 2000 # # DON`T DELETE THIS: # APS_BASEDIR:/root/linux/rpms/apsfilter # # APS1_BEGIN:printer1:deskjet::default # - don`t delete start label for apsfilter printer1 # - no other printer defines between BEGIN and END LABEL # lp|aps1-deskjet--auto-default|Printer1 deskjet auto default: :lp=/dev/lp0: :sd=/var/spool/lpd/printer1-deskjet--auto-default: :lf=/var/spool/lpd/printer1-deskjet--auto-default/log: :af=/var/spool/lpd/printer1-deskjet--auto-default/acct: :if=/root/linux/rpms/apsfilter/filter/aps1-deskjet--auto-default: :mx#0: :sh: raw|aps2-deskjet--raw|Printer1 deskjet raw: :lp=/dev/lp0: :sd=/var/spool/lpd/printer1-deskjet--raw: :lf=/var/spool/lpd/printer1-deskjet--raw/log: :af=/var/spool/lpd/printer1-deskjet--raw/acct: :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 for me now is what did I do wrong? Any help is REALLY appreciated. Thank you. _________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com.
