Subject: hp printer on ethernet
We have an hp LaserJet 5M printer connected directly to our ethernet
(i.e.
not connected to a server machine) with an IP number assigned to it.
Has
anyone configured Linux to talk directly to one of these types of
printer
interfaces or is it possible? I'm running Colgate 4.0 on an Intel
machine.
You can telnet directly to the printer to do any specific
configuration needed. Entries in the /etc/printcap file would look
like this : (taken from a Slackware 2.1 system here :)

A couple of points here : We are using another LPR program that allows
for local filters to run *before* shipping the file off to the remote
printer. Actually, I was going to make an RPM of this, but it kind of
slipped my mind. This local filter is the :ef tag below, which runs
magicfilter <=== *HIGHLY* recommended.
The :rm tag specifies the host for the printer, in these cases it's
the actual printer itself. If you don't have it in your DNS tables,
put the IP address here.
The :rp tag is the name of the printer on this host, it should always
be raw: so the printer doesn't pre-process the data stream. You can
also set it to text: where it will convert LF to CR-LF.
