lpr(ng) not filtering through enscript for remote printer
Hi,
Normally, with magicfilter installed, printing out a .c file will give
a two collumned small font sized landscape printout, because it uses
enscript.
If you make a small tst.c and:
$ cat tst.c|/etc/magicfilter/ljet4m-filter >~/me.ps
$ gv me.ps
you will see what I mean (and this works properly for me)
However, when I
$ lpr tst.c
I do not get the formatting (I get plain text portrait).
/etc/printcap has:
lp|hplj4l|HP Laserjet 4L:\
:lp=lp:sd=/var/spool/lpd/hplj4l:rm=remoteprinter.lincrud:rp=hp:lpr_bounce:\
:sh:pw#80:pl#72:px#1440:mx#0:\
:if=/etc/magicfilter/ljet4m-filter:\
:af=/var/log/lp-acct:lf=/var/log/lp-errs:
Is the 'if=' line not parsed for remote printing? I guess I
could make a small script to force my printing through magicfilter.
Using lprng 3.7.4-1
regards,
mark.
