I am trying to set up a postscript printer using papif and papof on a Sun
running SunOS 4.0. I have the Cap 5.0 release and set up the printcap entry
ps:LaserWriter:A sample LaserWriter printer:\
:lp=/dev/ps:\
:sd=/usr/spool/ps:\
:pl#72:pw#85:\
:sf:\
:lf=/usr/spool/ps-errs:\
:af=/usr/adm/ps.acct:\
:if=/usr/local/cap/ps:\
:of=/usr/local/cap/papof:
I set up a link between papif and /usr/local/cap/ps. Then created an empty
file /dev/ps (cp /dev/null /dev/ps). When I send jobs to the ps printer they
just sit. The lpq -Pps warns that no daemon is present but there are no
errors in the log files. Can anyone help. I prefer direct E-Mail.
Thanks.
