model.orig defaults?

[rmueller58]

all,

We are using OPTIO to print a Purchase Order. I was looking at the model.orig and found the "pitch" set to "DEF"...
The problem with the form appears outside the bound or the form frame when printing..
We modified the DEF to "12" and we got no change in the printing..

Any suggestions of a work around, I am not sure whether we can use the command line
-ohsi option because OPTIO code.. Any thoughts would be appreciated..

Thanks in advance..

Hi

Print a test page with the spooler as DEF

Then print a test page with spooler with the
DEF changed to 12

If you see a difference when pprinting outside of optio then the problem is optio and they should be consulted.

What type of printer are you using and what is the model script.

disable the printer then print with option and look in /var/spool/lp/request/printer where you will find a c(ontrol) and d(ata) file for each request.

Look in the control file for the parameters optio is giving. If it prints raw then you have a problem.

Hi,

the problem i see is that the hsi-option overrides the pitch-option.

So within the model.orig script search for
case "$pitch" in
...
esac
cut these lines and paste them after the hsi-case
case "$hsi" in
...
esac

If that doesn't help comment out the hsi-case lines.

Regards
