Hello, I'm trying to get a DS3100 working with an Apple LaserWriter IINT. So far I have it printing most of the file (in PostScript format), but there always seems to a little bit at the end that doesn't come out. I'm new to UNIX/Ultrix so I'm not 100% sure of what I should be doing. If anybody out there has solved this problem I would really appreciate a copy of the /etc/printcap entry (an explanation of what was going on wouldn't hurt either !). Thanks, Fergal.

Sounds like you might need to specify some particular "EOF" character in the printcap entry, though it could also be a problem with handshaking. Beware of LaserWriters, the serial characteristics change radically depeneding on the some kind of switch setting (2'nd hand info)... -- George Robbins - now working for, uucp: {uunet|pyramid|rutgers}!cbmvax!grr but no way officially representing arpa: cbmvax!grr@uunet.uu.net Commodore, Engineering Department fone: 215-431-9255 (only by moonlite)
