Using control-d as a jobbreak made printer print postscript "source code" or lots of empty pages. Printer name: marianne Interface: tcpip Address: "marianne:9100" Options: JobBreak: pjl (by default) Feedback: yes Codes: TBCP (by default) (I also tried with clean8bit and binary) PPDFile: HP LaserJet 5Si Flags: no no (banners discouraged, trailers discouraged) OutputOrder: PPD Default Filter Options: level=2 colour=False resolution=600 freevm=1515136 mfmode=ljfive I ruled out windows problems by printing from unix, for example "ppad show marianne|ppr -d marianne" prints "ppad show" output in one page and some crap page after that, usually with a single character "¶". Any ideas? I copied ppr queue and jobs files (by ppop halt marianne) to http://www.etla.fi/~ajake/ppr/ > If you are ambitious, you could also set up a test queue with the dummy > interface and set jobbreak to "pjl" and see what it writes to the output > file when you print to it from Win95. Did this, you can find output of "ppad show foo|ppr -d foo" under same url, filename foo-defaults and foo-pjl-tbcp which has jobbreak set to pjl and codes set to tbcp, i have no idea what to look for.
