Why????

I am Printing the same PCL file on five different flavors..
Only LinuxRedhat will print it.
The other 4 flavors (HPUX11, SCO, AIX, and Solaris)
Printer Data Light blink on the printer, it says it is printing.. then resets. The lp print job just disappears
from the queue. (lpstat -t)..

PS. I am adding the printer the same way on all machines.

Please let me know your thoughts..

Thanks,.


 
Did you use the HP network printer (hpnp) installation from 'scoadmin' on the SCO box? Which interface script?

What happens if you add a raw option to the lp command?

lp -d printer -o raw filename
