Hi all,
I just completed upgrading and Alpha 3000 M600 from OSF/3.0 to DU 4.0d pk
#3.
I also have approximately 30 printers attached through a xyplex terminal
server and discovered some problems with the old configuration under the new
O/S. The problem we are having is with the okidata 9-pin impact printers.
Specifically the system is currently configured using a shared printer
filter program that I can't locate. The version from 3.0 works under DU
4.0d but I don't want to count on it and am looking for an update or source
for it.
Example Printcap entry:
lp1|1|oki_stat:\
:lf=/usr/adm/lperr:\
:lp=/dev/xyp1_fake:\
:mx#0:\
:of=/usr/local/lib/oki_stat:\
:sd=/usr/spool/lpd1:
And the contents of the output filter:
#!/bin/sh
/usr/spool/filter 128.95.182.15 3500 -eor
The binary program /usr/spool/filter is not a standard DU 4.0d toolset and I
haven't been able to find a copy of this program on Xyplex's web site.
Anyone have suggestions?
Thanks,
