Printing problem

We have a HP lj4plus connected as a network printer. I tried to print a file from node station, HP382 9000series with HP-UX 8.0, but the printout was showing only two or three lines of the file. I have checked the config. in sam and the printer is connected as remote. I have tried to add the printer as network but sam is not allowing to. Is something not right to the system? I will be greatly appreciate for any help.

Re: Printing problem

Hi Alex,

Is the output stair-stepping off the page?
If so that simply means you need to set an option on the printer menu to append CR to LF. Menu item would be something like
LF=CR+LF
UNIX systems do not send CR+LF like Windoze systems do - they just send LF so the printer dutifully follows instructions & lets the output go past the right margin.

HTH,
Jeff

Hi,

HP-UX 8.0 is no more supported by HP.
You should have Jetadmin software in order
to configure the printer in the network.
I doubt you may not get Jetadmin for Hp-ux 8.
