Hope this turns out to be trivial :-) Am trying to print to a HP Paintjet connected to a terminal server (90L+) from a DECstation 5000/240. The printer is connected via a serial-parallel converter. I have set the printcap entry up as for an LJ250. When printing (a text file) it does not do a linefeed and so overprints. Is there a dip-switch setting or printcap entry to fix this or perhaps an escape sequence that needs to be sent to the printer (if so how?) ? Reply via e-mail djr@adam2.bnsc.rl.ac.uk Cheers, Dave Rawlinson, RAL
