  I have a Sun 3/160M server and ALPS P2000G and Epson LQ-1500 line printers.
When I hook either of these 2 printers up to the Sun via the serial port A, 
I get good printout for a page or so, than it becomes garbled. Thus, I know 
that there is some type of handshaking problem but I don't know what it is.
Does anyone have a printcap that works with either of the lineprinters above 
that works?? My current printcap is:

#Epson LQ-1500 over ttya
0|lp|ap|arpa|ucbarpa|epson|applewriter:\
:lp=/dev/ttya:sd=/usr/spool/epson:\
:br#9600:fc#0177777:fs#00320:tr=\f:\
:lf=/usr/adm/lpd.errs:


Thanks in advance for any help
