How to assign carriage control for printing

[Randy Hagedorn]

Hi,
We are transforming Cobol programs written for e3000 to PL/SQL and the lp command on hp-ux and are having trouble with transitioning printing techniques.

Can any one tell me how to assign carriage control to the report output for printing on H/P printers from hp-ux?

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

to interpret cariage control under hp-ux you have to use the asa program.
Typical technic is to pipe through asa ie.:

program | asa | lp ....

where program has ouput on stdout.

See also 'man asa'

I am not sure if this will help but I will use asa to do it.

man asa for more information.
