Hi,

I'm wondering if anyone here has successfully gotten lpd/lpr to work with
any Apple LaserPrinters? I'm trying to set it up using the CAP package,
and can't quite get it to work. 

I can print a postscript file directly to the printer through CAP's papif,
but I can't get it to work when used as either an input filter or output
filter on lpd. 

I've setup the printcap in several ways, starting with the one suggested in
the CAP documentation. Nothing is working like it should though. I've played
with permissions on the various files and directories installed, and am
still not having any luck.

Can someone who's got this working help me out?

Thanks,
Kelly
