Hello:

 I am a FreeBSD newborn with a Win95 machine converted less than one
month ago.
    I have a NEC SilentWriter II model 90 Printer configured to the
parallel port, with
a parallel cable connect to my Intel Petium II 450 running FreeBSD.

    The problem is everytime I do a lpr or enscript(should I try other
commands ??)
the printer flashes with the following messages but no pages printed:

            ready...processing...waiting....ready


       Clearly, it is receiving something from the machine (ascii or PS
?)
        What is not configured here ?
        What seemed to be the problem ?


    The printer print fine after I switched back to LocalTalk and
connect it back to my Mac.

Any insights will be sincerely appreciated.

thanks
