I'm having trouble getting my Laserjet 1100 (using the ljet4 driver) to
print a test page from Windows 95.  Printing from Linux is normal.  I am
using standard lpr, not lprng or cups.  I am using Samba 2.0.7.  

I got Windows to see the printer through the network, but it prints
gibberish.  Actually it doesn't print straight gibberish but the bytes
sent to the printer as ascii characters. I can recognize the text mixed
among the other characters.

[printers]
   printing = BSD
;   print command = /usr/bin/lpr -r %s
   print command = /usr/bin/lpr
   printcap name = /etc/printcap
   guest ok = yes
   browseable = no
   printable = true
   public = yes
   read only = yes
   create mode = 0700



Does anyone know a resource for me to fix this?  I have the O'Reilly
book but it has been less than helpful.
