[Omniprint-user] Omni and CUPS communication

[Andrew A. <and...@ho...>]

Hello All.

I'm currently trying to develop printer drivers using Omni architecture and
I've ran into some trouble.

With esp-ghostscript 7.07.1, I can print and modify the properties of the
drivers (Epson 24-pin 80 Col) such as Form=A5 using the -sproperties 
parameter.

But when I use CUPS, both the Web Interface and lpr command to modify the 
properties,
It does not change, my command is something like:
   # lpr -o media=A5 test.ps
      or
   # lpoptions -o media=A5
   # lpr test.ps
result:
  --> test.ps is still printed using the default form/paper which is Letter.

Am I doing something wrong here?
Im using the following versions:
	Redhat Linux 9
	cups 1.1.20
	omni 0.9.1-1


TIA.
Andrew

Perhaps you should specify explicitly the name of the printer - just a 
try...
