    Hello,

    I have an Epson LX-300+ dot matrix printer and I only want to print plain
    text to it. I used the "raw" queue, but then it never sends a form feed
    to the printer after each job.

    Can anyone explain how to add a form feed string so that the printer does
    it after each job? I've never figured it out and if I could get it
    working I'd be so happy!!!

    I'm using Debian 3.0 and the printer is connected via serial interface.
    I'd use LPD but I have colour printer (Epson Stylus C43UX) too.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!

    Thanks in advance...

    John
