I never thought this would be a problem. I am trying to get an entry into
the printcap, my only entry so far, for an LN03 printer. This printer is on
a VAXstation running VMS and Multinet. Here is my printcap entry:
ln03|lp0|ln03:\
:ct=remote:\
:if=/usr/lbin/ln03of:\
:lf=/var/adm/ln03-errs:\
:lp=:\
:mx#0:\
:of=/usr/lbin/ln03of:\
:pl#66:\
:pw#80:\
:rm=vaxdsk.mrs.umn.edu:\
:rp=ln03:\
:rw:\
:sd=/var/spool/ln03:\
:xf=/usr/lbin/xf:
This is pretty much what lprsetup did for me. I added the ct=remote line.
It appears that a connection is made to the VMS system, the file gets
transferred over there, and then nothing happens. The connection stays open
and the file never gets printed. What did I miss??? I even used the
printcap from my Ultrix system, which prints with no problem, but that
didn't work either. Any clues appreciated. Thanks.
