- Have a look in the /etc/printcap-file, here is my version for nearly the
- same situation:
-
- lp|hp|HP LaserJet IIP:\
- :lp=/dev/ttyb:br#19200:\
- :mx#0:ms=pass8,ixon,raw,crtscts:\
- :sh:\
- :tr=:\
- :lf=/usr/adm/lpd-errs:
-
- Very important is mx. The manual says:
-
- mx num 1000 maximum file size (in
- BUFSIZ blocks),
- zero = unlimited
-
- I hope this helps. I have the same trouble for a few weeks!
