Hi,

Go to: /usr/spool/lp/interface,

Edit file with printer name and modify this line:

banner="yes";

changing yes to "" (don't put no...).

Hello,

This is the file was in /usr/spool/lp/interface and I don't see the banner page options. I have also checked in /etc/lp/interface directory and no luck.

Any idea or feedback is welcome.

Appreciate your help.

insert BSDh="-h" somewhere just before the /usr/sbin/rlp line near the bottom ( about 14 or 15 lines from the bottom)

You are using a remote printer interface so it is not the same as what was mentioned before.

If you are using JetDirect/hppi

you can turn the banner page off there

1 Spooler Administration
3 Modify existing spooler queues
Enter printer
4 Additional printer changes...
3 Banner Page
