No line feed when printing to Windows print server

[Andre Thompson_1]

Hi Everybody

I setup my HP-UX server to successfully print to a Windows print server. However there does not seem to be any line feeds being printed.

Can anyone help? I have setup the printer as a remote printer from the HP-UX side.

The actual print device is a HP LaserJet 4000 printer.

Hi andre,

On the printer control panel, under the configuration setting, set CR=CR+LF

Hope this helps.

Hi Sanjay

Would this setting affect my other users who normally print from their Windows desktops?

Andre,

You might instead want to try running your output through the ux2dos command:

ux2dos myfile |lp -d WindowsPrintServer

Thanks. A bit extra work but it did the job.
