Hi, I am trying to run GatePost1.7 on our sun3. The files print fine, but the sun3 doesn't remove any of the jobs from the queue. I have to manually remove the jobs and then kill the print daemons. Were using transcript filters on the sun3. I set GatePost to 8 bits, no parity, 9600 baud, and 1 stop bit. I am using the following printcap entry. # PostScript printer driven by TranScript software ap|ps|postscript|PostScript:\\ :lp=/dev/ap:\\ :br#9600:rw:fc#0000374:fs#0000003:xc#0:xs#0040040:mx#0:sf:sb:\\ :if=/usr/local/lib/ps/psif:\\ :of=/usr/local/lib/ps/psof:\\ :gf=/usr/local/lib/ps/psgf:\\ :tf=/usr/local/lib/ps/pstf:\\ :nf=/usr/local/lib/ps/psnf:\\ :sd=/usr/spool/ap:\\ :lf=/usr/adm/ap-log:\\ :af=/usr/adm/ap.acct: I would appreciate any suggestions to solve my problems. If I could get GatePost to work properly, or more likely, if I can get our printing software to work properly, get post would be a great program. I'm not downgrading GatePost, I'm just a very frustrated user. Also so suggestions to Paul Menon, the author , can you make it run in background in multifinder, and is there a way to preset the default settings and have it automatically start running when you launch the application.
