Can someone tell me how to configure my unix printers so that no banner page is printed at the beginning of a print job? I have gotten the printing to work, but I want to stop the banner page. What file do I change to configure that? AIX, 4.2.1, with NT Clients. Thanks in Advance, Pattee Bender Uniform Color Company
This depends on your print command. If you are using the SAMBA standard lpr the add -h to the arguments. Coming from ATT rather than BSD I use the command lp -c -d%p -o -d -o p -o -Z -o ! %s ; rm %s Hope it helps. Burkhard Weeber C. Haushahn Automationssysteme GmbH & Co.

You should have received a whole shelf of books with your AIX system (I have translated some) as well as online documentation. The setting you need depends on you printing subsystem (AIX uses lp as far as I'm concerned) - my Linux uses lpr. Suppose there is an appropriate setting for banner pages in lp? Anyone out there knows? Michal
