HI,

I managed to configure an /etc/printcap for my laserwriter selelct 310.

Watch out your /etc/ttys does not define /etc/tty01.

Special about the 310 is that it does not use appletalk.  I know somebody
that used
it with linux by parallel port.


In general, Apple lasers need 8 bit characters. (the ms=... clause).

Thanks to Steve Revilak for a mesh of printcaps I used to make this one work.
