Reverse telnet printing

[vodkadrinker]

Can anyone point me in the right direction for information on printing directly to a host ip and port number on a SCO system.

I know how to do this on SVR4 but it does not seem to work when I apply the same setup on SCO.

Example entries for SVR4
/etc/uucp/Dialers
prt "" ""

/etc/uucp/Devices
PRT, eg tcp - - TLI \D prt

/etc/uucp/Systems
hplj4 Any PRT - \x0002238c994e7170

lpadmin -p hp4text -U hplj4 -T dumb -I simple

I see you can use netcat however I would like to do it without any additional software.


Example test connection

telnet 192.1.1.1 9100

This connect's directly to the printer and will print out any text followed by a control m.
