[ale] Serial Printers/Plotters

[bkruger at mindspring.com (Bob Kruger)]

Anyone have any good hints on setting up a linux printcap for a serial 
printer/plotter?  I have an old but reliable HP Draftmaster II that I 
just moved from a W98 machine to a linux box.  The serial port is 
already configured.  If I generate a plot file from Autocad, I can run 
plots by doing the following:

cat plotfile.plt >> /dev/ttyS1

All attempts at configuring printcap to handle this have failed.

Any tips or ideas?

Bob
