Hello managers,

I've installed an HP4M printer on an Alphastation 255 following the
documentation (Release Notes du 4.0a page 2-13 and following).

Here is my printcap file :

# cat /etc/printcap
lp|lp0|0|hp4csg|lp:\
        :af=/usr/adm/lpacct:\
        :ct=tcp:\
        :if=/usr/lbin/hplaser4psof:\
        :lf=/usr/adm/lperr:\
        :lp=_at_hp4csg/hp4m:\
        :mx#0:\
        :of=/usr/lbin/hplaser4psof:\
        :pl#66:\
        :pw#80:\
        :rw:\
        :sd=/usr/spool/lpd:\
        :xf=/usr/lbin/xf:

I've added the following line in /etc/services :

hp4m 9100/tcp # imprimante hp4M

And issued the rcinet restart command.

At each time I try to print something, I've the following lines in the lpr.log
file :

Dec 13 14:37:15 x4164 lpd[1284]: lp: Daemon filter 'f' terminated (-1)
Dec 13 14:37:15 x4164 lpd[1284]: lp: filter/access error for dfA004x4164.ain.fr
Dec 13 14:37:15 x4164 lpd[467]: pid=1284 (sig=-1,err=0)


Some ideas ?

Thanks

Daniel
