I'm looking for a source Program (C Language) that i can use as an out put Filter for an "APPLE Laser Writer" Printer (This Printer can print ASCII and also Post script format Files), The Printer should be connected to a "DEC System5810" Mchine with a RISC Processor but via -and this is the important- IP_Server (3COM Server) . Using the lprsetup Program under Ultrix System generated an out put filter /usr/lib/lpdfilters/iplpscomm NODE %U %H %J which did't work with this specific type of Printer regarding the specific kind of Connection (via 3COM Server) as well . P.S. --------> dealing with the Ultrix lprsetup Program, I answered the Question"printer type" with ---> printserver , and the question: Connection Type with ------> "network" . So , for whoever can help me , would you please send me the Source Program which can be used as "of" Entry in the /etc/printcap (i.e. as out put Filter) and can you tell me how a complete Entry for such a Printer in the /etc/printcap should look like ???????? Thank you in Advance , VERY MUCH !!! Ihab H. M. Ismail Siemens A.G. Otto_Hahn_Ring # 6 8000 Munich 83 - Germany ZFE IO 2 Tel (0049)89-636-49643 Telefax (0049)89-636-40144 E.M.
