I am running Solaris 8 on a Sun Ultra 60. I am trying to print to a Lexmark network laser printer. I am receiving the stair step effect, where the text is printed fine on the first line,
then tabbed over on the next,
and so on.....
and so on....

I know in Linux there is a box you can check to fix this. What about in Solaris? Any ideas?

Thanks

In this exemple : printer name = prtlex2

lpsystem -t bsd prtlex2
lpadmin -p prtlex2 -s prtlex2!prtlex2_CR
lpadmin -p prtlex2 -T unknown -I any

Good luck

Thanks for the input. I think that I've seen this fix before, but not sure how long ago. Will give it a try tomorrow and let you know how it worked. Thanks again.
