>Description:
I have two Printers connected to two paralell ports. One HP Designjet 220
and one Epson Stylus Color 1520. When i send a HPGL2 Printfile generated 
by an Windows CAD Software to the Designjet "cat file > lpt0:". The 
printer starts to Print but some Lines are displaced. Looks like some 
Bytes are droped while transfering the data to the printer. I have tried
several settings for the paralell port. The problem is still the same. 
The same printfile works when send on an Win95 Computer.  The Epson 
Printer prints but also shows some unexpected Problems when used with
samba

State-Changed-Why:  
That's not how you're supposed to print under FreeBSD (the 
command you gave in the PR actually looks more like a MSDOS 
command than something that could possibly give results 
under UNIX); use a printer manager like lpd.
