Re: Printing problem-Canon BJ10e

     Hello Robb,
     
     I'm using a BJ200 at home and I had the same problem at first. To 
     solve it, I had to modify a DIP-switch setting on the printer itself.
     
     Unfortunately, I can't remember the DIP number or name by heart, and 
     my doc's at home. So, if you don't find out yourself, mail me back and 
     I'll get you the exact info for tomorrow.
     
     Hope this helps.
     
     Bye.
     
     Ph. A.

Hi,
     
I've read the manuals, and the how-to's, and the documentation.  And I 
can't figure this one out.  
     
I have a Canon BJ10e printer.  I'm using the magicfilter that came from the 
Debian distribution (everything else is Debian too).  I used 
magicfilterconfig to create the printcap file.  Previous to this I tried 
with Slackware, and just to be sure, I 've even tried two different PCs. 
No matter what I do, when I print something I get 64 lines on the page, two 
on the carriage, and then it continues printing on the next page.  But the 
two lines on the carriage never make it onto paper.
     
I've got ":pl#60:" in my printcap, but it seems to have no effect on the 
number of lines actually printed on the page.  Any ideas?
     
Thanks for your help,
