Hi Folkes,
I am working with a client and we are trying to configure a printer to use
the envelope feeder.
The system is a new Alpha DS-25 running 5.1a. The printer is a HP Laserjet
4200.
I went to HP's website and found hp4200_6.ppd and placed it in /usr/lbin/ppd
with the same rights and ownership as the other files
in there.
The printcap entry is:
lp3|3:\
:if=/usr/lbin/ppdof +OEnvelope +Chp4200_6.ppd:\
:lf=/usr/adm/lp3err:\
:lp=@LaserPrinter/hpjport:\
:mx#0:\
:of=/usr/lbin/ppdof +OEnvelope +Chp4200_6.ppd:\
:pl#66:\
:pw#0:\
:rw:\
:sd=/usr/spool/lpd3:\
:sh:\
:xf=/usr/lbin/xf:
Nothing is printing. Even when I remove the +OEnvelope from the printcap,
nothing is printing. I get a quick data light on the printer so I know it
is getting something. And I can print from the normal paper trays using the
HP4050 built in settings in lprsetup.
Any ideas? This is the first time I have fooled with a printer and ppdof.
All we want is to feed from the optional Envelope Feeder.
Thanks
Tim
