Hi Christie,
I'using an Apple Personal Laserwriter for quite a while with RHL 4.2 - no
problems so far. This is the printcap I'm using:
##PRINTTOOL3## LOCAL POSTSCRIPT 300x300 a4 {} PostScript Default {}
lp0|apple|ps:\
:sd=/var/spool/lpd/lp0:\
:mx#0:\
:br#9600:\
:fc#0177777:\
:fs#02275:\
:xc#0177777:\
:xs#0105073:\
:sh:\
:lp=/dev/cua1:\
:if=/var/spool/lpd/lp0/filter:
The strange numbers are for the serial port settings... (see Printing-HOWTO).
If you need information on setting up the serial port as well give me a shout.
HTH,
Thomas
