What determines if lpd runs the filter specified by 'if' on jobs submitted from remote machines (listed in /etc/hosts.lpd)? lp|hp815c|HP DeskJet 815C:\ :lp=/dev/lp0:sd=/var/spool/lpd/hp815c:\ :sh:pw#80:pl#72:px#1440:mx#0:\ :if=/etc/magicfilter/dj670c-filter:\ :af=/var/log/lp-acct:lf=/var/log/lp-errs: If I 'lpr foo.ps' locally, magicfilter notices it is in PostScript format and runs it through gs on the way to the printer. If a remote machine submits a PostScript file, it is printed verbatim. (But if I stop the queue, make a copy of the queued print file, and locally 'lpr copy.ps' that *does* get filtered... and looking at the file, it appears to be normal PS with the appropriate %! trigger at the start.) This is on a Debian Woody system. My RH system across town works the way I want, but I can't spot the configuration difference. :-( The printcap man page explains a filtering exception for remote printers, but not jobs submitted by remote clients.
