I am trying to print to a AIX print queue from an HP9000 HPUX server which has the print queue configured as a remote BSD printer. The print queue spooler is configured with a page length of 60 lines. I can not change the configuration value. Can I send a print command that will change the print queue spooler to 66 lines for the report that I am sending to it. I am not referring to the printer device length configuration. I know how to send commands to the printer to change it's lenght. My reports require 66 lines per page in the spooler. At 60 lines it chops off the bottom 6 lines and puts it on the top of the next page. If I chnage the print spooler to 66 lines the problem goes away. This print queue is also used by PC clients running windows as it's default printer. When you print from a PC windows client, windows apparently sends sometype of command to the print queue spooler that changes the total lines per page to 66. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
