    wyse terminal printing

    Hi Folks, I finally have it working. I thank everyone for their help. It seems we were so very close the first time. I found that when I printed to the terminal with the lp command, it would, kick off the user, not print anything or print to just the screen. Lprint would work fine. I...

    wyse terminal printing

    Thanks, I've changed the lpt6 filejto reflect those changes. I have to wait until tommorrow in order to test though. By the way, I think that conversion table at Thread58-337782 is wrong. When the octal value gets up to 77, wouldn't the next progression would be 100 instead of 80? Tom

    wyse terminal printing

    G'day, I cannot identify the terminal make or model that the client is using. There are no identifiying marks on it anywhere (this may be the problem). It is, however, using wyse 50 emulation. I've downloaded a PDF for wyse terminals and looked up the control sequences. I've had the...

    wyse terminal printing

    The company had bought a PC clone for their server (mistake #1). It is running SCO 5.05 I believe. It did have a Digiboard in it that went bad, so we switched it over to the onboard serial ports ( company had swapped most of their terminals for PC's, except two). I poked around through the...

    wyse terminal printing

    Hey, I need to set up say lpt6 to print to the aux port on a wyse terminal. Lprint works but it does not have the functionallity that I require. I need anyone to be able to print to this port, not just the local terminal user. I've tried editing /usr/spool/lp/admins/lp/interfaces/lpt6 (the...
