[comp.sources.d] PLP software and LaserWriter on SUN

malcolm@cs.hw.ac.uk (Malcolm Campbell) (11/25/88)

I am trying to install PLP on our SUN network. It works fine with
all our other printers, but cannot seem to communicate with the
SUN Transcript software that drives our laser printer. 

The pscomm program, which does the LaserWriter communications, and is
called from the filters, hangs. It appears to be trying to set up a
handshake.

All the tty bit setting are as they were when we used the SUN (berkeley)
spooler software, so that should be OK.

Can anyone help, the users are screaming at me coz they ain't got a 
working laser printer?

Thanks,
