Hi:
I have looked for an answer in the FAQs for this one, but have not found it:
When printing from a MacOS 7.6.1 machine, the print job hangs "checking the
printer's attributes". This same setup used to work with MacOS 7.5.3.
I have a papd.conf file with:
hplj4mp:pr=lp:pd=/usr/local/atalk/etc/HP4MP6_1.PPD:op=root:
Checking the nbplkup shows:
hplj4mp:LaserWriter 65280.128
Lastly, after a few moments of trying, the Mac screen gives an alert:
The document "blah" failed to print on the printer "hplj4mp" because the
connection to the printer closed unexpectedly.
Mac config: System 7.6.1, LaserWriter Driver 8.4.1, Chooser using
LaserWrite GX.
I'm a Unix guy, so forgive me if I've made an obvious Mac error.
