Hello,

When I clean /var/spool/cups and do print from my DOS app to printer I
get the queue file like one I sent already but it does not come out to
the printer.
When I get to/var/log/cups/access_log
then I see that last message is that Print Job is successful-ok.
But,nothing comes out of the printer nor printer blinks as a reaction
to receiving data.
When I Go to http://localhost:631 and print test page everything isOK
whichmeans that printer and connection with printer is OK.
Strange, isn't it?
If you want I can again put my dosemu.conf on pastebin.

Thanks,

Vedran
