I am trying to hook at HP Laserjet III printer to a DECstation 5000
running Ultrix 4.1. It seems that the flow control isn't working
correctly. The printer prints documents less than 10 pages; but after
printing 10 pages, it halts and restarts the printing job with the
first page. I am looking for the appropriate /etc/printcap entry and
the corresponding settings for the laser printer. Here are some
specific questions that I have:
- What is the best printcap entry for a HP laserjet III?
- What are the corresponding printer settings?
- What is rhobust flow control?
- What RS232 lines does the printer use/need?
Please email whatever advice you can regardless of whether it addresses
one of the questions above.
Thanks,
