SUMMARY: Enscript - make it print

I resolved this myself, by editing /usr/local/etc/enscript.cfg and changing
DefaultMedia from A4 to Letter.

Tru64 Managers:

I'm having trouble getting 'enscript' to work on Tru64.

Background: I was trying to upgrade 'gtar' (Gnu TAR) and ended up removing
some/most of the freeware "RPM" packages. I reinstalled some things and
upgraded RPM in the process.

I also reloaded Enscript 1.6.1.4 and that seemed to be successful. But the
user complains that he runs enscript is not working.

The command he uses:
        enscript -d hp4050 -G2R -q -fCourier5 filename

Nothing comes out of the printer, though the same printer works fine with
lp.

Is there something I need to configure (or additional software needed) to
complete the job of Enscript?

Thanks

Robert Aldridge
