# My /etc/printcap template for a Canon BJC-4300 printer # ====================================================== # # Very Important: refering to doc found on the net and at # http://www.linuxprinting.org/, you will use the params for a BJC-600 for # running the BJC-4300 (see also Canon-LP mailinglist). # Installing printtools may help! # # Also important: verify that you have a /var/spool/lpd with permissions set # to drwxrwsr-x lp lp and there, a lp0 directory with permissions set to # drw------- daemon lp (if not, you have to mkdir + chown it). # Go to /var/spool/lpd/lp0 and do a touch .seq, chmod 641 .seq and # chown daemon:lp .seq (if .seq doesn't exist). # Test printing with: $ lpr file.txt 'enter' # # Just a last tip: verify if mpage, lpr-ppd and gs are present on your # system. # /etc/printcap: printer capability database. See printcap(5). # You can use the filter entries df, tf, cf, gf etc. for # your own filters. See /etc/filter.ps, /etc/filter.pcl and # the printcap(5) manual page for further details. # rlp|Remote printer entry:\ # :lp=:\ # :rm=remotehost:\ # :rp=remoteprinter:\ # :sd=/var/spool/lpd/remote:\ # :mx#0:\ # :sh: ##PRINTTOOL3## LOCAL bjc600 360x360 a4 {} CanonBJC-4300 Default {} lp0|lp:\ :sd=/var/spool/lpd/lp0:\ :mx#0:\ :sh:\ :lp=/dev/lp0:\ :if=/usr/lib/printfilters/master-filter:\ :PAPERSIZE=a4:\ :DESIRED_TO=ps:\ :PRINTER_TYPE=LOCAL:\ :ASCII_TO_PS=YES:\ :GSDEVICE=bjc600:\ :RESOLUTION=360x360:\ :PS_SEND_EOF=NO:\ :NUP=1:\ :RTLFTMAR=18:\ :TOPBOTMAR=18:\ :TEXT_SEND_EOF=NO:
