I am configuring a VAXstation 3100 to attach a LN03R (PostScript)
printer.  I have tried duplicating exactly the setup used on
a VS2000 for  the same printer, but without success.  All print
jobs are sent to the spool directory and queued without any
error messages of any kind.  The status reports the printer is
running, but no transmission occurs.  The /etc/ttys entry has been
set to 4800 baud, and tried both on and off.  The device file
/dev/tty03 is set rw for all, owner root.  The printcap specifies
the ln03r filter for input and output (converts ASCII to PostScript).
The lpd daemon and a getty on the tty are running.  The spool 
directory is owned by root, the init and lock files by daemon, with
group system for all.  Can anyone give me any help and advice on
what is wrong, or what else to try?  Thanks very much.
