Subject: lpr with a serial printer?
Date: Sun, 28 Mar 1993 01:01:43 GMT


has anyone got lpd/lpr working on Linux with a serial printer?
lpr works with remote, network printers, but it doesnt work properly with
a serial printer. I try to set the flags for the tty, but lpd seems to ignore
them, or reset the serial port back to defaults; this make the printer
error out due to serial overruns. the printer works ok if I stty the serial
port and cat files to the device, but it doesnt work with lpd.

thanks
