Trying to print to appletalk LaserWriter on ethernet via Linux box. Read
All the docs, how tos I can
find. Lurked on this for months, searched the archives.

It's time to yell for help. (I saw the articles on how great the Linux
community is on "customer support") -:)
============================================

Running Redhat 4.2, netatalk 1.4b2 rpm

I can get aecho and can print directly via pap a postscript test.ps
file.
Printing goes to the spool directly just fine.
Can't get any thing out of the printer.
lpc, status says it's printing.

===========================================

.paprc

#PRINTTOOL3## REMOTE POSTSCRIPT 600x600 letter {} PostScript Default {}
lp0|LaserWriter Pro 630|LaserWriter:\
        :pr=lp0:\

==============================================

# /etc/printcap

(The first printer, lp, the laserjet works fine)

##PRINTTOOL3## LOCAL laserjet 300x300 letter {} LaserJet Default 1
lp:\
        :sd=/var/spool/lpd/lp:\
        :mx#0:\
        :sh:\
        :pl:\
        :60:\
        :sf:\
        :ff=:\
        :lp=/dev/lp1:\
        :if=/var/spool/lpd/lp/filter:

##PRINTTOOL3## REMOTE POSTSCRIPT 600x600 letter {} PostScript Default {}

lp0|"LaserWriter Pro 630"|LaserWriter:\
        :sd=/var/spool/lpd/lp0:\
        :lp0=/var/spool/lpd/lp0/dev/null:\
        :pl#63:\
        :pw#85:\
        :mx#0:\
        :sh:\
        :sf:\
        :lf=/var/log/lpd-errs:\
        :if=/usr/local/atalk/etc/filters/ifpap:\
        :of=/usr/local/atalk/etc/filters/ofpap:

=====================================
papd.conf

(I tried this with just first 2 lines, but papd didn't see it )

##PRINTTOOL3## REMOTE POSTSCRIPT 600x600 letter {} PostScript Default {}

lp0|"LaserWriter Pro 630"|LaserWriter:\
        :sd=/var/spool/lpd/lp0:\

        :if=/usr/local/atalk/etc/filters/ifpap:\
        :of=/usr/local/atalk/etc/filters/ofpap:
