The (real) printer is a pcl/postscript printer (although a LexMark, I=20 used a HPLJ Color 4500 printer driver). And in DOS/Wordperfect I set up= =20 a postscript printer driver for HPLJ Color 4500) I set up another machine in exactly the same way as the problem machine= ,=20 and have no problem in printing . On the problem machine the cups=20 error.log produces the following entries: "I [29/Jan/2008:09:20:01 +0000] Default destination set to 'HPLJ4500' b= y 'root'. E [29/Jan/2008:09:20:12 +0000] print_job: Unsupported format 'applicati= on/vnd.cups-raw'! I [29/Jan/2008:09:20:12 +0000] Hint: Do you have the raw file printing = rules enabled?" Is something missing from the Dosemu setup or in CUPS?=20 Victor Warner Rafa=C5=82 Cygnarowski wrote: > Dnia czwartek, 24 stycznia 2008, napisa=C5=82e=C5=9B: > =20 >> Thank you for the reply. >> >> I do use cups, but my technical skills are low so although I can see= the >> relevant cups files I do not what I should be looking for. >> >> Would it be possible to let me know what I should be looking for/doi= ng. >> I would be very grateful. >> =20 > > 1.
