print, the Printer Package will work around this

 

issue by converting the data to regular PostScript.

 

However, if your application bypasses LLPR and

 

feeds EPS data to CUPS, the document may not

 

print correctly.

need to have a correct installation of the SAMBA

 

package that enables that feature. The “smbclient”

 

command should be available and usable on your

 

system.

 

 

My application seems

and thus return immediately. Since LLPR is waiting

 

for user input before passing the job on to the print

 

spooler, very often the application will wait for the

 

process to return, and thus will appear to be frozen

 

(its windows won’t refresh). This is normal and the

 

application should resume functioning correctly

 

after the user exits LLPR.
