HHEEELLLPPP.

What have I done?

ok.

The entry in /etc/printcap looks like:


# Ghostscript
ps|Ghostscript driver:\
	:lp=/dev/lpt0:\
	:sd=/var/spool/output/lpd:\
	:lf=/var/log/lpd-errs:\
	:mx#0:sh:if=/usr/local/libexec/lpfilter-ps:


The lp-filter-ps looks like:


#!/bin/sh
#Treat LF as CR+LF
printf "\033&k2G" || exit 2
# Print the postscript file
/usr/pkg/bin/gs -dSAFER -dBATCH -dQUIET -dNOPAUSE -q -sDEVICE=stp \
-sMode=escp2-800 -sOutputFile=- -sPAPERSIZE=a4 - && exit 0
exit 2


However, it won't print.  The lpd-errs log file says:

Aladdin Ghostscript 6.01: ./src/iinit.c(100): initial_enter failed (-7), entering /registeredencodings in -dict:956/983-
Jan  5 18:11:48 CS670402-A lpd[16816]: ps: job could not be printed (cfA022CS670402-A.gvcl1.bc.wave.home.com)

Any ideas?

  Thanks again,
