Hi all,

Background
=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D

I have installed a FreeBSD-stable on a bootable CD-ROM using sysutils/cdroo=
t.

A printer, Brother HL-1250, is attached to /dev/lpt0.
My /etc/printcap contains:

lp:\
    :sh:\
    :lp=3D/dev/lpt0:sd=3D/var/spool/lpd:lf=3D/var/log/lpd-errs:

The log-file /var/log/lpd-errs contains only a line with "lpd startup",
no errors.

/var/spool/lpd has owner daemon:daemon and mode 770

/var is mounted on a hard disk.

lpd is started from /etc/rc.conf

An now my problem
=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D

When printing from a remote machine (FreeBSD + apsfilter, NT4 + Printer
Driver) the printer prints everything ok, but after each job an empty
page follows. So, it's not *THAT* problem, but I don't like it ;o)

Has anyone a solution or a hint for me? I have already checked the web
and the usenet, but found nothing helpful :(

Thanks, Olli
