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...
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?

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.

One other thing. The terminal that dials in is connected to tty1A. In scoadmin under the printer options for lpt6, I have the port set to /dev/tty1A. Is adding these control codes in /usr/spool/lp/admins/lp/interfaces/lpt6 the right way to do this? Meaning, will the terminal process the...
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...
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...
