I use lp|HPLJ2:\ :lp=:\ :rm=psrvr:\ :rp=L1:\ :if=/var/spool/lpd/lj.sh:\ :lf=/var/log/lpd-errs:\ :sd=/var/spool/lpd:\ :mx#0 for my printcap entries. I have a netgear printsever and it is l1 on the server. I can't lp a file because it stairsteps but I want to print from kword and don't have any problem.
