Hi, I just bought the 2nd hand Apple Personal LaserWriterNT. Now I like to set up with my Linux box. I got the "LapLink" cable connect between my lpt1 and printer. When I try to print, no response on the printer...:-( ----------------------------------------------------------------------- lp is ready and printing Rank Owner Job Files Total Size active derek 12 AM271101.AMS 24 bytes 1st derek 13 (standard input) 6536 bytes They just stay there forever. I am using Linux Kernal SLS2.0. I got parallel printer support compiled into Kernel. I also install a2p into my machine. but anyway, I even can't make lpr work.... Any suggestion? Is my cable problem or setup? Don't suggest me to read the manual.....I don't have it, I don't mind to read if anyone have one can borrow it to me.
