Printer problems

Hello,

I'm having some difficulty in setting up our Alpha 3600(running OSF v3.2) to
print to a DEClaser 2200. The Laserjet is connected to the RJ11 printer port.

When I request a print it just seems to sit in the queue forever and nothing
happens. Here's a copy of my /etc/printcap :-

        lp|lp0|0|laser:\
        :af=/usr/adm/lpacct:\
        :br#9600:\
        :ct=dev:\
        :fc#0177777:\
        :fs#023:\
        :if=/usr/lbin/lpf:\
        :lf=/usr/adm/lperr:\
        :lp=/dev/tty01:\
        :mx#0:\
        :of=/usr/lbin/lpf:\
        :pl#66:\
        :pw#80:\
        :sd=/usr/spool/lpd:\
        :xc#0177777:\
        :xf=/usr/lbin/xf:\
        :xs#044000:

I'm sure I'm making a stupid mistake in the setup process, any help in setting
this up would be greatly appreciated.
