     Dear Sir,

     I am writing to say that the answers to your questions about using lpd
     with a JetDirect printer can be found in the excellent articles
     contributed by Sean Kelly <kelly@fsl.noaa.gov> in the handbook.

     See http://<Your_Local_FreeBSD_Mirror>handbook/handbook79.html#87

     eg in Canberra, Australia
     http://www2.au.freebsd.org/handbook/handbook79.html#87

     I have found this extremely useful.

     Here is part of the relevant section of the relevant file on a 2.2.5
     host here,

     it03d|HP Laser Jet 5M with Jetdirect card:\
             :lp=:\
             :sh:\
             :lf=/var/log/lpd-errs:\
             :rm=itc180:\
             :rp=raw:\
             :sd=/var/spool/output/it03d:

     You will find what this means from the handbook

     Yours sincerely,

     S Hopcroft

     How can I set up lpd to talk to a Postscript printer with an
     ethernet interface.

     Also, is there a freeware equivalent to Transcript ?

     Thanks,

     Joe
