I have fixed the problem. Thanks for all your input and
help. I was browsing through the online manual and found a
reference to a script file called laserjethpnf. I used
this and everything started working properly. I guess we
just got lucky on the other printers we installed because
they have...

I made the changed to the /usr/spool/lp/admins/lp/interfaces/hp5l file but it
had no effect on the log files. It did not create files in
the /tmp directory. I checked the file three times and it
is exactly like you typed it. I checked the print job
spooler and the job is still in the spool. So...
I can ping both the hp5l and the 192.168.0.137 with no lost packets. So the host entry is working properly.
/usr/spool/lp/admins/lp/interfaces
-rwxrwxr-x 1 lp lp 3070 Mar 22 2000 LP99
-rwxrwxr-x 1 lp lp 3070 Dec 10 14:48 hp5l
Entries are exactly the same...
I checked the two files side by side and they are identical
are these the correct files? I see no reference to a specific device in either of these files. These two files
are /usr/spool/lp/admins/lp/interfaces/LP99
& /usr/spool/lp/admins/lp/interfaces/hp5l
Okay here are the interface files working one first LP99
/usr/spool/lp/admins/lp/interfaces/LP99

REALMODEL=`echo $0 | sed -e "s%$MODEL%model.orig/$MODEL%"`

Okay, I made so many changes that I deleted all the setup
that I had previously done. I went back and built a new
printer called hp5l. This printer is attached to a hp jet
direct 170x. This printer should work with the hp4
emulation or just plain hp. The settings are as follows.

Anybody know who I can call to get this problem fixed? I could call SCO but I think it's about 300.00 per incident. Is there anybody else out there that one of you have used that is proficient to fix a problem of this type.
Okay, I checked the request log and the job doesn't even show up there. Like the print job never happened. Can someone tell me all the printer related files in the system. I have checked these.
etc/bootptab
etc/printcap
I changed the entry here to a printer that was working. Did not work. Gave...
I already tried copying the interface file and it didn't work. I have not checked the log though. Good Idea, I check it now.
I found the only log file here
var/spool/lp/logs
There where two files
lpsched
requests
lpsched file only showed starting of the print spooler.
well the requests file...
This is the etc/printcap file, the last few lines anyway. The printer called hp above the last one works fine. The others are virtual printers. Or direct connected printers.
LP7:\ :lp=/dev/ttyb05:ex:sd=/usr/spool/lpd/LP7...
I tried that and still not working. This is the etc/hosts table, lp50 is the printer that does not work. I removed and added it again. All the printers except the last two work fine with no problems.

Hi, I'm having a problem with adding new remote printers in Open Server. When I add a printer using the hp printer manager I can put in all the boot/p info and peripheral name, spool name, ip address and select the test option and it will print test pages using the peripheral name or the ip...
