HPUX 11.00 PRINT FROM TEXT EDITOR

[Matteo Pavesi]

Hello,
when trying to print from the test editor in HPUX 11.00 I do not see any printers. It is unable to find them. If I do type a printer name I get the message "An X print server for 'printer_name' could not be found". Any ideas on how I can do to print from the text editor?
Thank you very much.

Using the Technical Print Service



Print Dialogs


CDE 2.1 applications (Mailer, Text Editor, and Calendar) that create print output use the Technical Print Service (TPS). TPS creates the dialog boxes you see when you print from these CDE 2.1 applications.

The Common Desktop Environment: User's Guide describes how to print documents from the desktop applications. For specific instructions about selecting printing options, refer to the online help available from the Print Dialog box.
