We have printer queues controled by DCPS, lpd, and scriptserver. The DCPS and Scriptserver queues require separator flag pages.
The script server queues were setup with "set queue/sep=flag". The DCPS queues were setup with the same command.
The dcps flags look different. They are the same as when we did the flag page setup in the dcps$execution queue creation.
example:
@sys$startup:dcps$execution_queue -
"queue_name" -
"Ip" -
"" -
"page_orientation=landscape" -
"/separate=(noflag,noburst,notrail)" -
"" -
"" -
""
So I am trying to find out where the different separator flag pages exist so I can force them to match.

Peter,
If you can speak raw postscript, as far as I can tell, the DCPS flag page is defined in LPS$$SYSTEMPAGES in the device control library (default SYS$SHARE:DCPS$DEVCTL.TLB). I believe the scriptserver module is the same name, but may be in a different library.
Note the "$$" in the name means "internal, undocumented and unsupported", so if you decide to play with it, make sure you have a copy to restore.
(BEWARE!, the contents look to me like someone tipped a bucket of random, almost English, words into a bucket of "/", "{" and "}" characters. And, being postscript, I have no doubt that a single character out of place will result in a tree's worth of paper being spat out of your printer printed with random heiroglyphics)
I haven't been able to work out where LPD hides its flag page definition.

Re: Printer queue flag pages
Thanks John
Since its unsupported and I NEVER want to deal with a postscript coding again I was able to have them except the flag pages as is.
