Hi, 

I have a Lexmark laserprinter hooked up to a FreeBSD box (parallel).
When I print, it always prints one page full of garbage...
With lp, and also when I print from a Windows workstation
though the BSD box with Samba.

This is my printcap:
#       @(#)printcap    5.3 (Berkeley) 6/30/90
lp|local line printer:\
        :lp=/dev/lpt0:sd=/var/spool/output/lpd:lf=/var/log/lpd-errs:


Any clues ?
