Sorry this summary is a little late.

My original question:

>> Does anyone have a printcap for a Panasonic KX-P1124 serial printer ?

It got two replies from

             Boyd Fletcher IV <boyd@cs.odu.edu>
             ralph@swmerc.rain.com (Ralph Merwin)

I also got one message asking for a summary, so here goes.
Thanks for the quick response.

P.S. I hope to try this out this week, so these solutions are untested
       for my printer.
