I have just set up a Speedstream 2614 router/print server with a W2K box and a Linux box connected. I have also hooked up a HP DeskJet 812C printer to the parallel port of the router. I can print from the W2K machine. I have not been able to print from Linux yet. I have tried to set up the appropriate printcap entry as follows: HP:\ :ml=0:\ :mx=0:\ :sd=/var/spool/lpd/HP:\ :af=/var/spool/lpd/HP/HP.acct:\ :sh:\ :rm=speed:\ :rp=lp:\ :lpd_bounce=true:\ :if=/usr/share/printconf/util/mf_wrapper: Where 'speed' is the name of the router in my hosts file, mapped to 192.168.254.254. Looking in the status file, I see the following messages: printing finished at 2002-09-11-19:15:07.185 ## A=root@linux1+794 number=794 process=1847 sending job 'root@linux1+794' to lp@speed at 2002-09-11-19:15:07.185 ## A=root@linux1+794 number=794 process=1847 connecting to 'speed', attempt 1 at 2002-09-11-19:15:07.185 ## A=root@linux1+794 number=794 process=1847 connected to 'speed' at 2002-09-11-19:15:07.188 ## A=root@linux1+794 number=794 process=1847 requesting printer lp@speed at 2002-09-11-19:15:07.188 ## A=root@linux1+794 number=794 process=1847 job 'root@linux1+794' transfer to lp@speed failed error 'NONZERO RFC1179 ERROR CODE FROM SERVER' with ack 'ACK_RETRY' If someone has successfully set up a remote printer, any help is appreciated. Thanks

I had the same problem. The 2614's User's Guide is wrong. The remote printer name is "LPT1", not "lp". In /etc/printcap, set :rm=192.168.254.254: (or whatever you have set your router's LAN address, in your case "speed"), and set :rp=LPT1:.
