Hi Tru64UNIX managers,

I have DEC LA75 dot matrix serial printer which is configured in our Alpha
DS20 Tru64UNIX v4.0F over LAT connection.

Question:
How should I do if I want to have print out with 72 lines per page format
capability? I've tried to modify the 'pl' of /etc/printcap to be 72 instead
of 66 as set earlier. I've already gone through the existing printer
config., it's been ready for 12inches of form length. Then though I've tried
to print a text file with 'page break' character embedded. But, the result
is always coming out with 66 lines format.
Here is the command that I issue:
#lp -dsrcad3_d4 TEST.PRN

Could you pls. help me on that?

Herewith the existing /etc/printcap for particular printer:
srcad3_d4|lp5|SRCAD3_D4|Cheque Printer:\
        :af=/usr/adm/lp5acct:\
        :br#9600:\
        :ct=dev:\
        :fc#0177777:\
        :fs#03:\
        :if=/usr/lbin/la75of:\
        :lf=/usr/adm/lp5err:\
        :lp=/dev/tty03:\
        :mx#0:\
        :of=/usr/lbin/la75of:\
        :pl#72:\
        :pw#80:\
        :sd=/usr/spool/lpd5:\
        :sh:\
        :xc#0177777:\
        :xf=/usr/lbin/xf:\
        :xs#044000:

Thanks and best regards,
