Hello,

Does anyone have any experience with Hostprint 1.11? I am running it on
a 3.12 server with SAA ver2.0.
I have spent about 1000 hours (really!)trying to fix the problem without
success. At this point, I am ready to jump of a bridge.

We're printing LU tupe 3 printing from a ES/9000. I have my page length
set up for 33LPP and if I try to send more than 16 lines, it'll print
all lines, skip the next page, then FF to the top of the next page. If I
print 14 lines or less, it 'll FF right to the next form (perfect). If I
look at the hex dump on the printer, I see a FF followed by about 16
LFs. Where are these LFs coming from?  I have tried just about every
option in HPDEF, PRINTCON, PRINTDEF, CSCON. Am I crazy, or is there a
problem with Hostprint?
BTW, if I use Attachmate's host print functionality on the PC, control
characters are handled fine. 
IBM has been scratching their heads over this problem as well.

If you have any suggestions, please let me know.

Thank you in advance!

Bart
