Excuse the ignorance (I have not been able to get a hold of a good set of manulas) How do I print something on the attached parallel printer on a PS/2 running AIX 1.1? (print file and print -lpd and pr file did not work) thanks ------------------------- S. Alavi (919) 467-7909

When you attached your printer, did you run the devices command to add the device to your system? If not, log in as root and type 'devices'. Just answer the questions. Then again, if you did run devices, this isn't going to help much, is it. -John Hartman IBM Kingston, AIX I/O Development. TL 8-695-5382 (914) 385-5382
