Hi, Used apsfilter SETUP last night to setup a remote printer (on wife's win98), printed a file first try but have not been able to duplicate it since. I have retraced my steps to a "T" but no joy. I have lprold installed. I am at a loss. Tell me what you need to know and I will provide the info. I have tacked on my /etc/printcap for good measure. Thanks, Tom <HR> <UL> <LI>text/english attachment: printcap </UL> N§²æìržzǧué[h²ë )îÅ맲æìržzˬyÊ&ÚuØÚÊ&©Ý²Ç§ué[h²ë )îÅè^.±ç([(rØ^¶m§ÿðà .±ç(ô®Š+·ðèïÅ

I had lots of trouble with printing before I discovered this article about the defective lprold. After I updated lprold, it worked perfectly. I hope this solves your problem. Even if this isn't the reason for your problem, you should update anyway to have less variables when trying to solve the problem.

Thanks, I did forget to mention this is 6.4, but I will check the version of lprold . This would not be the first package I've found that doesn't work right. I did have printing working great in 6.3, even from Star Office.....don't know how I did it, but hopefully I can learn this time. Guess it's time to crawl under the hood of my NEW car. (I'll stop there) Tom
