Hi.

I have a Panasonic 24 pin printer, which is emulating the Epson LQ850,
so I figure my printcap should work for you.  Here is the relevant
section:

Thats it!  Just one line.  Pretty easy to get working really.  I suspect
you must have some other problem.  Feel free to get back to me if this
doesn't work.
