Hp4100N witrh Deskjet card on SCO5.0

Locked

I need a toll that will allow me to design a customize form , and allow me to determine the number of copies . I can do this easily with
Printer Management in Windows , however the job comes from the SCo server and I need to set these two parameters prior to sending the Job .

The custom form has to be 8.5 by 7 “.
I would like to avoid having to use the front panel , (to much user intervention)

I Looked in Scoadmin and could not find anything
Familliar that would allow to setup these two parameters.

Any Ideas ?

I believe what you may be looking for is print forms. I have found a link with detailed information.

Also, you may wanna do a “man” on lpadmin and look at it’s options it offers. (man lpadmin)

And one more thing, if you need to set the amount of copies needed each print its more than likely a configuration setting under the default interface file you selected for your printer. You can configure these files on most sco systems at /etc/lp/interfaces and /etc/lp/printers

If that doesn’t help any, write back.
