Banner on remote printer
Hi all,


i have a Sun Solaris server ( Sun OS 5.5.1 ) , and few windows machines accessing it using exceed humming bird software ( 6.1 ).

I have a EPSON printer connected to one of the PCs, and I am using Exceed LPD daemon for printing.

Whenever I trigger a print command from Sun server, the printing is successful, but there is always a banner page coming..

the banner content is
=================
HCL-LPD
User : root@host <mailto:root@host>
Title : testfile
Class : host
Printed: Thu Dec 04 14:35:55 2003
Job Name : /opt/Admin/tmp/testfile
=================

The banner option is disabled in windows.
And I am unable to control banner option from sun server as this is a remote printer.

Any reasons for this behaviour ? and How can I remove the banner page.

Thanks in advance...

Hi

I think the " -o nobanner " is applicable only if the printer is configured as a local printer..
