Printing problem using terminal/print server with HP 9000

I need to print to an EPSON LQ1170 printer using a Lantronix ETS16PR terminal/printer server from a HP9000 server using SAM to configure the print server and HPNPTYD.
When I print to the same printer using a MUX we have no problem to change the fonts characteristics.
When we use the ETS16PR we do print, but not with the correct font and size.

Re: Printing problem using terminal/print server with HP 9000

are you setting the printer up as remote, and using lp services on the termserver, or is this setup as direct and the termserver just a pass-through?

What do the interface scripts look like for each configuration? (/etc/lp/interface/*). The interface scripts for local printers offer some formatting control, but the remote interface does not. You may have to create a custom interface script to do both.
