Hi,
I asked about printer filter for printing out banner pages. Lack of
documents and experience, I am still struggling to understand the
problem and solutions suggested by those who kindly responding to me.
When I have a better understanding I will post a summary about it.

For now, I think I would like to try a different approach.

The question about this approach is simple:

Where can I find the right filter for HP LJ 4M+ so I can send postscript
and ascii files to the same printer name(lp, the default)?

I tried to use /usr/lbin/ln03rof. The printcap file is:

lp:\
        :lp:\
        :if=/usr/lbin/ln03rof:\
        :of=/usr/lbin/ln03rof:\
        :rm=hplj:\
        :rp=raw:\
        :lf=/usr/adm/lperr:\
        :sd=/usr/spool/lptest:\


It works for the postscript but not for the ascii.

Thanks in advance.
