Access 10.2 shared PostScript printers from OS 9
Authored by: n9yty on Apr 07, '03 04:00:16PM

To enable MacOS 9 clients to use these printers, you have to slightly modify your xinetd service description to include the following line:

server_args = -o document-format=application/octet-stream

Doing this tells CUPS to use it's filtering on any incoming job, and so if a postscript file comes in, it will filter it to raster output on the printer.

Does not work

This does nothing. I have been working on this for days and have not yet printed a single page from my OS9 box to my OS X connected USB printer (Epson C42UX)
