Does anyone have a working printcap file for this type of printer (and/or is this my problem? --or do I need a different device driver?). We'd like to get lpr working also. Any help would be apprectiated. Please email me directly. The HP laserjet + supports HPPCL so any setup files for the greater HP laserjet family *should* work.
