Hi all,

I am running 2.6 and am trying to print to an HP LaserJet5 si mx. I have
added the printer with the  command:  lpadmin -p foo -s bar!bar -I ps -T ps
This allows me to print ps files, but won't print my ascii text files
correctly. 
I also tried adding simple to the -I option, but it doesn't help.

What am I missing?

Thanks in advance.
