when printing to the remote printer, it does all the filtering
not the "lp" local print server
all your filtering is done on :rp: ( remoteprinter )
and :rm: which i assume you need to change its name to the real ip#
and hostnames
only options needed for this print server to talk to the
"real printer server that has the printerconnected to it"
workstation# cat /etc/printcap
#
# Minimum entries needed for workstation to be able
# to print to the printer connected to "LP_ServerIP"
#
lp|Epson800:\
:sd=/var/spool/lpd/lp:\
:rm=LP_ServerIP:
LP_ServerIP# cat /etc/printcap
#
# it would have all the local filtering
#
lp|Epson800:\
:lp=/dev/lp0:\
:sd=/var/spool/lpd:\
:pw:132:\
:fq:\
:sh:mx#0:\
:if=/usr/local/sbin/printers/stc800:\
:lf=/var/spool/lpd/lp-log:
# change :if:, the printer filter for your printer
restart lpd ...
