print issues

[unixkid]

Users are complaining about an error I've never seen before, can anyone lend a hand or advice?

Warning: socal_kujira not configured to handle all lp options:ignoring: -o raw

 

[edfair]

looks like some software package is outputting a print job with an option of raw to the print spooler using an interface script that can't handle it.
If this is new, then might be time ot reload the interface. Ed Fair

Any advice I give is my best judgement based on my interpretation of the facts you supply.

Help increase my knowledge by providing some feedback, good or bad, on any advice I have given.

You mentioed to reload the interface...on the printer or possibly could there be a driver error

That portion of the OS that handles the conversion from a text file to the hardware signals out.
In SCO , which is most of what I do, the conversions are handled by (or filtered thru) an interface script file. And that would be the part that would be reporting the error back.
The lp service would get a call like:
lp -dprintername filetoprint -o:raw or some such
and would process the printername script (which would at some point output the filetoprint to the hardware).
I have no idea what you are running or whether yours is handled the same way. Ed Fair
