Hi, I am trying to use a HP deskjet 710C printer with my debian box. I previously had a star matrix printer hooked up, which used to work fine, so the cable and driver (lp.o) seems OK.
Now, with the deskjet, if I do a 'cat document >/dev/lp0', the printer remains silent. Shouldn't this always work, independent of which filter package I am using? When I use lpr (from the LPRng package) the file status.lp, from the spool directory, says that the document is printed OK, but nothing coming out of the printer. I use magicfilter with the dj550c filter. Any help would be appreciated.... Thanks, Joop -- Joop [EMAIL PROTECTED] Linux Hamradio Applications and Utilities Homepage http://www.casema.net/~aba
