Hi all,

        I'm a relative newb to printing in Linux - mainly because the GUI's
have always worked for me.  I have a Lexmark C720 Laser printer at work
here.  I used to print fine, but now I have problems.  It is a
PostScript printer, and has an LPD running on it's ethernet port, so
setup has been easy usually.  Running printconf-gui, and printing a test
postscript page to it results in the correct output.  However, when
printing from Gnumeric and Evolution, I get output, but not anything
near what I expect.  It will draw the outlining borders of the cells,
but not the text inside.  I have also tried printing to a ps file, and
then sending that file to the printer manually by doing a "lpr -P Work
output.ps", and that doesn't come out right either.
        Here is my /etc/printcap:

# /etc/printcap
#
# DO NOT EDIT! MANUAL CHANGES WILL BE LOST!
# This file is autogenerated by printconf-backend during lpd init.
#
# Hand edited changes can be put in /etc/printcap.local, and will be
included.

        :ml=0:\
        :mx=0:\
        :sd=/var/spool/lpd/HomeLaser:\
        :af=/var/spool/lpd/HomeLaser/HomeLaser.acct:\
        :sh:\
        :rm=192.168.0.250:\
        :rp=L2:\
        :lpd_bounce=true:\
        :if=/usr/share/printconf/util/mf_wrapper:

Work:\
        :ml=0:\
        :mx=0:\
        :sd=/var/spool/lpd/Work:\
        :af=/var/spool/lpd/Work/Work.acct:\
        :sh:\
        :rm=192.168.0.51:\
        :lpd_bounce=true:\
        :if=/usr/share/printconf/util/mf_wrapper:

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

TIA,

Justin
