See the man page on lpadmin - there is a "nobanner" and "banner" option. Banner is default.
Controlling the Use of the Banner Page
nobanner
Allow a user to submit a print request specifying that
no banner page be printed.
banner
Force a banner page to be printed with every print
request, even when a user asks for no banner page.
This is the default. Specify -o nobanner to allow
users to specify -o nobanner with the lp command.
Note the following if that does not help (reverse engineer it!):
Quote:
Disabling the banner page in Sun OS 5.x (Solaris 2.x) environment:
NeWSprint printer:
1. Change to the printer spooling directory on the printer server.
e.g. /etc/lp/printers/<printername>
2. Set BANNERPS and TRAILERPS to nullin .param file:
e.g. BANNERPS=; export BANNERPS
TRAILERPS=; export TRAILERPS
HP Jetdirect printers (using jetadmin):
1. Change directory to /etc/lp/interfaces/model.orig
2. Edit the file named after the printer:
change banner="no" (or "yes") to banner=""
All other printers:
1. Change to the /etc/lp/interfaces/<printername> directory.
2. Edit the file named after the printer:
change nobanner="no" to nobanner="" (or "yes")
If the printer you are printing to is a remote printer, your only options are:
1. Set up the remote printer with "Banner Required? No" and send your
jobs with:
lp -d printername -o nobanner file
2. Shut off the banner in one of the above ways on the print server.
Also note that some printers may need to have the banner turned on -
Quote:
If the printer is an HP with Jetdirect card you need to
telnet into the jetdirect card (telnet <pingname of prtr>
then hit cr twice) to get to the internal menu. There is
a banner option that needs to be turned off. Follow the
instructions in the menu to turn it off.
