I am trying to install a LA75 on ttyS0. I can cat files to the printer without
any problem. However, lpr does not work at all. The file gets to the print
queue but no activity on printer.
I am not sure I have the printcap fs, fc, xs, & xc parameters set correctly.
The HOWTO refers to a termios.h file for calculating these values. The
termios.h file on my system only has 4 entries, none of which contain the
information that I need.
Any input would be appreciated.
BTW, the parallel printer (lp) is working fine with the lpr daemon.

| Here's a printcap entry I used for my LA75 when I used to have it as a
system printer. You'll need to change the lp device name and maybe the
baud rate, but try starting with this:
la75|serial: \
:lp=/dev/ttyS2: \
:br#4800: \
:sb=true: \
:sh=true: \
:lf=/dev/console:
