This is my /etc/printcap!
oki|lp|okidata laser:\
:lp=/dev/lpt0:sh:sd=var/spool/lpd/oki:\
:if=/usr/local/libexec/okiif:
I have created the /var/spool/lpd/oki and chown to daemon.
This is the filter file I'm using.
printf "\033\&k2G" && cat && printf "\f" && exit 0
exit 2
When I print I still get the stair case effect!!!!
My next problem is my printer only prints the first few print requests
then when I send another print job it prints blank pages only a couple.
Then I check the que and it has been processed. If the system is
shutdown the printer will print a few more requests. Then it will start
printing blank pages for each request.
Thank you,
