Hello,
Does anyone have a printcap entry for an epson lq1050? I have
been having great difficulty in configuring this beast. I am currently
using the settings from the LA75 configured via lprsetup. But I have
been having problems. When I print any text file, most of the file will
print (sometimes), but the last part will not. But, if I wait three to
four minutes, the rest of the file will sometimes print out. I have
tried changing the fs and xs flags in the printcap entry, but that doesn't
seem to work. I would really like to be able to print my .dvi files (using
Beebe's dvieps, dvie72 or a hacked dvitos drivers. FYI, this is a 24 pin
printer with a wide carriage. I am currently using 8.5 x 11 paper, but
I want to put in the wide stuff which has a tear off at 8.5 inches. Any
help or pointers to archives of printcap entries would be appreciated.
This printer is hooked up the /dev/tty00 on a DECsystem 3100.
