Hello World!
I have a odd printing problem on a remote du printer queue.
When printing du -> VMS the print jobs come out fine.
When printing VMS -> du via ucx the form feed is lost.
Native du files print fine.
Native VMS print jobs print fine on the VMS printers.
If a file is created in VMS and ftp'ed to the du side, then printed form feed
is still gone.
The only difference that I can find is the files that are created on the VMS
system have <newline>^L. Where the du files have ^L at the end of the line
and then start the next line right after the ^L.
The printcap entry on the du system is...
lp19|19|alfred:\
:if=/usr/lbin/lg02of:\
:lf=/usr/adm/lp19err:\
:lp=/dev/lp0:\
:mx#0:\
:of=/usr/lbin/lg02of:\
:pl#66:\
:pw#132:\
:sd=/usr/spool/lpd19:\
:xf=/usr/lbin/xf:
the printer is a Mannesmann Tally MT691.
Thank you for your time.
