Hello,
I am attempting to set up a postscript printer on a serial
port on a Compaq 33 Mhz 386, running ISC unix 2.2. I've used the
sysadm utility to add a serial printer. These are my line settings:
stty -parenb -parodd cs8 9600 -hupcl -cstopb cread -clocal -loblk \
ignbrk -brkint ignpar -parmrk -inpck istrip -inlcr -igncr icrnl -iuclc \
ixon -ixany -ixoff \
-isig icanon -xcase -echo -echoe -echok -echonl noflsh \
opost -olcuc onlcr -ocrnl -onocr -onlret -ofill -ofdel tab0 \
line 0 \
0<&1
I can talk to the printer, I know this because when I do a
" lp -d ast psfilename " the light on the front of the printer
comes on. This light stays on for a few minutes and then goes out
without ever printing anything. I've set up the printer as just
your basic serial printer, no printer type or filter. Anyone out
there done this and had these type of problems ? Thanks in Advance
for all help.
