I've tried some other things :
a) use -x to prevent the transalation by hplaser4psof. I've got the same
error messsages with 'x' instead of 'f'.
b) I've suppressed the lines with pl, pw and rw , it's the same.
c) If I send a postscript file the file is printed correctly, even with the
error messages in the lpr.log file, but the header is not correct.
So I suppose that the problem comes from the access to the files in the
/usr/lbin directory. It seems that the program is not able to access to the
filter files whatever they are, for some obscure reason (protection?).
Thanks for your help.
Daniel
