Help with remote printer

[Dany Dionne <ddionne@poynting.phy.ulaval.ca>]

Hi,
we have a laserjet4 remote printer with a ethernet card and i  have some
difficulties to write a correct /etc/printcap

If my /etc/printcap is:

lj-5|lp|remote-hplj:\
	:lp=/dev/null:sh:\
	:sd=/var/spoll/lpd/lp:\
	:rm=132.203.76.56:rp=raw:

I am able to print but the output is incorrect. Every line is decaled,

I installed apsfilter and i did try with the following entries in my
/etc/printcap file:

auto-lj|lp|ljet4-a4-auto-mono|ljet4 auto mono:\
        :lp=/dev/lp0:\
        :sd=/var/spool/lpd/ljet4-a4-auto-mono:\
        :lf=/var/spool/lpd/ljet4-a4-auto-mono/log:\
        :af=/var/spool/lpd/ljet4-a4-auto-mono/acct:\
        :if=/usr/lib/apsfilter/filter/aps-ljet4-a4-auto-mono:\
        :mx#0:\
        :sh:
rlp1|remote-ljet4|hplj4m-1|ljet4-a4-auto-mono|ljet4 auto mono:\
        :lp=/dev/null:\
        :sd=/var/spool/lpd/remote:\
        :rm=132.203.90.56:rp=raw:

where /usr/lib/apsfilter/filter/aps-ljet4-a4-auto-mono is the
filter provided by apsfilter with the following modifications:

REMOTE_PRINTER is set to "True"

Unfortunately, it's not work. I receive the error message:
waiting for lp to become ready (offline ?)


Anyone have a idea?

Thanks a lot,
