SCO

Hi,

We have a Unix 3.2v5.0.5.
I installed a printer via scoadmin, HP network printer manager with network peripheral name an ip-adress.

I have a lot of trouble, the printer do stair-stepping. I know it is because of the translation LF to CR/LF.
But it is impossible to set this correct in my interface-file.
Also I think I have only that problem when I print landscape of whe the lines are more then 60or66 characters.

I attached my interface file (copy of model.orig).
I already tried the FILTER=/usr/lib/lponlcr but it didn't change (do I need therefor to stop and restart?

Thanks for help, I am struggeling a long time.

Add the following to the beginning of the print file, or in the model file.

Code:

echo "\033E\c"                  #reset                    
echo "\033&k2G\c"               #turn carriage return on

These lines are already in your printer model file.
Do you have a reset in the print file itself, as this would negate the settings in the model file, and return the printer to its power on settings.

thanks,

That was it.
In some program's there was a reset.
Before we had visionfs for managing the printjobs. Then we had no problem with this reset.
But now we don't have vidionfs anymore.
Cleaned the reset in the program's and it worked again.
