I have a similar problem to WB's except in my case I have two printers: a HPIV
with ps capability and an Epson 640. The HP is in dos at lpt2 and the Epson is at
lpt1. In linux, the HP works ok pumping out postscript print jobs, but the Epson
doesn't. The conf.modules has three ports set up, two of which reflect the dos
settings along with the aliases. If I attempt to print to the Epson, the job just
causes the print queue to pulsate -- nothing is printed, yes, I'm using an
appropriate Ghostscript filter, etc. I'm using Red Hat 6.2; curiously, all this
worked back under 5.1!
