Here's a new one: I'm running CAP on my Sun 3/180 and it works great so far. Now I want to add the lwsrv spooler to allow the Macs to print to an Imagen 3320 which is sitting on the Ethernet. Past History: ------------- I have loaded Imagen's replacement Apple Dictionary (dictv5.2) onto the 3320's hard disk. I can create a postscript file on the Mac (cloverleaf-f), ftp it to the unix host, and then "lpr -Pimagen" it and I get the proper output- so I have that going for me. (Imagen's croak on print jobs headed by Apple's LaserPrep. This has been doc- umented here before. See below). The Present: ------------ I have been unsuccessful with lwsrv. Will this even do what I want it to do (print directly from the Mac to the Imagen)? The mac will find the Imagen, give me a "status" dialog box (which exits too fast) and exit gracefully looking like everything worked. However I only get a banner page out of the printer which has a message about "invalidaccess", etc. that Ed Arnold discussed in his "Imagen PostScript Problems" posting. So it looks like I want to prevent lwsrv from prepending ANY apple dictionary info to my print jobs. How can I force the mac/lwsrv combo to just blast an undictionaried postscript file to my Imagen- and use Imagen's dictionary? I hope this make sense. All suggestions welcome.
