I am trying to set up a debian print server with CUPS; intended clients: OpenServer via lpd and Win95 via samba.
My printer is a Fujitsu dot matrix DL3800 which I have configured with a raw queue. I can print jobs using lp from both the Debian server and the OpenServer client and also with samba from Win95. My problem is that I also have an Openserver application that sends print job and it allows the user to esc/p2 printer commands to toggle between two print attributes - condensed char off (ESC DC2) and condensed char on (ESC SI); this is configured with the hex codes 1B0F and 1B12. When this facility is enabled and I try to print with the application I get an error in the Debian server lpr.log: Unable to print file - client-error-document-format-not-supported. When the hex codes are removed the application can print but only with condensed char off. Is there a way to configure CUPS to accept these esc/p2 print commands (hexadecimal codes)? Any suggestion or reference sources would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Andrew -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
