Lpadmin and viewing printer settings
Hi - Dummy question #1....
We either use the Hewlett Packard HPPI too or LPADMIN command to setup out printers. Is there an LPADMIN command that will show you the default config of a particular printer.
Ideally looking to see default font, CPI settings etc.
Thanks.
