SPARstation 20 - Solaris 9
Standalone networked HP LaserJet 2100 TN
I can print to this device from the console using lpr with no problem.
However, in CDE I can print from only some applications:
Yes
--- Calendar Image Viewer Netscape No -- Address Manger Help Viewer Mailer Man Page Viewer Text Editor In all cases (even when nothing prints out), after selecting the 'Print...' option from the 'File' menu, 'laserjet' is shown as the destination printer, and when I click 'OK' in all cases a dialog box pops up with: 'request id is laserjet-(some number here) (standard input)' The same files that do not print from the 'Text Editor' application can be printed from the console using lpr. Configured the printer as follows: # lpadmin -p laserjet -v /dev/null -m netstandard -o dest=laserjet:text -o protocol=bsd -o banner=never -o timeout=60 Print services started. # enable laserjet printer "laserjet" now enabled # accept laserjet destination "laserjet" now accepting requests # lpadmin -p laserjet -I any In my environment LPDEST=laserjet In 'Print Manager', 'laserjet' is visible and set as the default printer. # lpstat -a laserjet accepting requests since Wed Aug 18 23:27:05 EST 2004 laserjet accepting requests since Wed Aug 18 23:27:05 EST 2004 Hosts file includes ip for 'laserjet' # Internet host table # ... xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx laserjet printers.conf: laserjet:\ :bsdaddr=sparc20,laserjet,Solaris:\ :description=HP LaserJet 2100 TN: _default:\ :use=laserjet: There are no errors in .dt/errorlog.
