Thanks to everyone who replied. It seems that to print PDF files you need to
go through a pdf to ps converter first. I downloaded ghostscript from
Compaq's Open Source Software Collection and ran the pdf2ps converter on the
pdf file.

Does anyone know if Compaq's Open Source Software will run on 5.0A? I have
to set up a machine that is running that version next.

Original message:

Has anyone been successful in setting up a Xerox N2125 network printer. I've
loaded Compaq Advanced Printer Software and setup up the queue and printer,
but when I print a pdf file using pdpr -p xeroxn2125 install.pdf all I get
is a banner page with the following message:

ERROR:interrupt
OFFENDING COMMAND: interrupt

STACK:

-filestream-

The printer works fine from our PC's.

I've also tried to set up the print using lpr and I get the same error.

/etc/printcap
lp2|2|xerox:\
:af=/usr/adm/lpacct:\
:lf=/usr/adm/lp2err:\
:lp=:\
:rm=Xerox:\
:rp=PS:\
:mx#0:\
:pl#66:\
:pw#80:\
:sd=/usr/spool/lpd2:\
:xf=/usr/lbin/xf:

I'm running 5.1a of Tru64 with PK1 installed
