Operating Systems AIX AIX printer and extra blank page after each print Post 302408411 by botao on Monday 29th of March 2010 12:08:40 PM

"trailing page" printer config option/parameter

- if memory serves, besides the "page height" (or lines-per-page) parameter,
I remember that "smit" and/or "jetdirect" used to have a specific "trailing page" yes/no config option/field, which governed the printing of an additional blank page at the end of the print jobs;

good luck, and success !

NAME
xpp - X Printing Panel SYNOPSIS
xpp [options] [files] ... DESCRIPTION
This manual page briefly documents the xpp command. This manual page was written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution because the origi- nal program does not have a manual page. xpp (the X Printing Panel) is a graphical interface to the CUPS printing system. It can be used as a drop-in replacement for lpr(1) or lp(1) for programs that want to spool print jobs, or to print files directly from the command line. OPTIONS
The following options are recognized by xpp: -d destination -P destination Prints files to the named destination queue. -# copies Sets the number of copies to print from 1 to 100. -C name Sets the job name. -J name Sets the job name. -t name -T name Sets the job name. -l Specifies that the print file is already formatted for the destination and should be sent without filtering. This option is equivalent to "-oraw". -o option Sets a job option. -p Specifies that the print file should be formatted with a shaded header with the date, time, job name, and page number. This option is equivalent to "-oprettyprint" and is only useful when printing text files. -r Specifies that the named print files should be deleted after printing them. -q priority Specify the priority of the print job (from 1 to 100). COMPATIBILITY
The "c", "d", "f", "g", "i", "m", "v", and "w" options are not supported by XPP and will produce a warning message if used. SEE ALSO
lp(1),lpr(1),cupsd(8) AUTHOR
The X Printing Panel was written by Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net> This manual page was written by Chris Lawrence <lawrencc@debian.org>, for the Debian GNU/Linux system (but may be used by others). The OPTIONS section was borrowed from the manual page for lpr(1). 10 May 2002 XPP(1)
