Almost certainly . . . if you could unambiguously specify the job to be done. What you say verbatim doesn't match your sample data, and there's usually noy carriage return in *nix text files.


Would this paraphrase of your request express your needs:


"in a file of empty line separated records, comment out one record's lines AFTER the record identified by [G-MI01SSR] patter"?

NAME
dl510kaof - Filter for the Korean DL510-KA printer SYNOPSIS
/usr/lbin/dl510kaof [-c] [-h host] [-i indent] [-l length] [-L locale] [-n login] [-w width] [accounting_file] OPTIONS
Prints control characters. Specifies the host name of the job owner. This name can contain Korean characters. Specifies the amount of indentation. The default value is no (no indentation). Specifies the page length in lines. The default value is 66. Specifies the printer codeset. This value, by default ko_KR.deckorean, must be a valid locale name. Specifies the login name of the job owner. This name can contain Korean characters. Specifies the page width in columns. The default value is 132. OPERANDS
Specifies the file to record accounting information. DESCRIPTION
The dl510kaof filter is used to filter text data sent to the DL510-KA printer. The filter handles the device dependencies of the printer and performs accounting functions. At completion of each print job, accounting records are written to the file specified for the af field in the /etc/printcap file. The dl510kaof filter can handle ASCII text files, Korean text files, and files that have been preprocessed by nroff. The dl510kaof filter translates nroff control sequences for underlining, superscripting and subscripting into the proper DL510-KA control sequences. The dl510kaof filter can be the specified filter in both the of and the if fields in the /etc/printcap file. For further information on these fields, see printcap(4). ERRORS
The lf field (default value /dev/null) in the /etc/printcap file specifies the name of the error logging file. SEE ALSO
