[comp.sys.apollo] Using CAP to print files from Apollo node

ianh@merlin.bhpmrl.oz (Ian Hoyle) (11/19/89)

I have just successfully built CAP (Columbia Appletalk Package) on my DN10000
so that I can (hopefully) direct printjobs to postscipt printers attached
to our ethernet LAN using Apple localtalk protocols.

Everything looks reasonable. atlook can see all of the printers and I used
lwsrv to successfully send a print job.

But ..... I want to spool the jobs using the Berkeley spooling system with the
input and output filters papif and papof. If anyone has done this already,
what should my printcap entry look like ??? Should I remove the pc= entry
directing the printing system to use prf ?? What should be used instead?

Any other hints at all :-)  ?
