Re: remote line printer not printing banner page
Printing banner page feature should be enabled on the printserver where the printer is actully configured not on the remote servers.
If the printserver is HP-UX server,
edit the printer script
/var/spool/lp/interface/printer_name
search the variable "banner"
It should be enabled like this
banner="yes"
Some printer have option to enable/disable banner on it's own configurations.
Ganesh.

Re: remote line printer not printing banner page
In /etc/lp/interface/printer_name file search for no banner and it should be like below
no Banner = no
if this value is yes, than it will not print banner

Re: remote line printer not printing banner page
There is only one server in this equation, the HP-UX box. The remote queue goes to the IP address of the line printer.
Same set up as on our OpenVMS box, which does print a banner page.

Re: remote line printer not printing banner page
I know zip about VMS, but I'll bet it creates the banner page and concatenates the printed file to it, sending the result on to the printer.
You might be able to do something similar in the "rmodel" script (assuming that's what you used at install time).
As I noted before, remote printers have limited options and I don't know off-hand if a banner page is available.
