Hi
I have one big problem with foomatic-rip filter on DotMatrix printer. Details
are as follows
Driver: epson lq500
Printer: epson LQ1150 printer
Printing system : CUPS
Flavour: fedora core 1
RIP: foomatic-rip which comes with fedora core 1.
Problem :
There are so many paper sizes like 4x5, 5x7....letter,legal... But if I print
a document from OpenOffice, the paper won't skipp properly. For example, let me
take 5x7 inch paper size and after printing, it should give 7 inch page length.
But I am getting 12 inch page length which is the default page length setting
of printer. Whatever the paper size I select,it gives 12 inch page length.
When I have taken hex dump from the printer, it is clear that filter/driver not
sending page length command.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Suresh Kellemane.
