Configuring Fujitsu 3042 printer

[Nagamani_1]

Hi,

I am facing problem configuring Fujitsu 3042 printer on HP 9000 D230 server with HP-UX 10.2.
Please suggest the correct driver for configuring the printer.

Please give some more details.

What type of interface does it use?
Which printer languages does it understand? (HP) PCL? Which level? PostScript? Other?

Do you have some URL where we can lookup the specs of *this* printer? (As far as I can tell, "3042" is *not* the full product number/'name'.)

Hi

Futitsu M-3042
This is a 900 Line Per Minute Band Printer. It is available with either Dataproducts Parallel, Centronics Parallel, or Serial Interface. The printer is commonly used in applications that require speed and durability.

Use the dumb printer script

Hi Steve,

Funny that you apparently found the exact same page as I did: http://www.cwhdallas.com/futitsu3042.html

I asked for more specs because it has three different types of interfaces and says "... Line Per Minute Band Printer", it looks rather old.

Hi all,

With "it" I did obviously not only mean which interface(s) the printer has, but also which interface(s) the computer has and which interface(s) the Question Author wants to use.
