[%-t will print in controller mode:
echo "printing $1..."
echo "\033[5i"
cat $1
echo "\033[4i"
Select correct printer port, parity, lines/inch, CPL in tnvt220 printer
setup (alt-s). Leave the Print Mode as Normal because the shell
script puts you into controller mode anyway.
Note: This does not work with VT100. If certain versions of echo do not work -
try using a System V version.
The script can be modified for other emulation modes (3rd party
emulators) by changing the escape sequences.
b) From Host Presenter use the same batch file.

2.) Remote Printing.
printer attached to a remote host/Netware File Server
a) From DOS to a remote host use RPR.
This is documented in both manuals with the setup in Chapter 6
of the Admin Guide. The idea is that you open a shell on
the remote host and execute a print command as if you were
logged on there. You return to DOS as soon as the job has been
sent to the print queue.
b) From the remote host to a NetWare print queue:
Route the file from the remote host to your PC using the
shell script above and from there it will be sent directly
to the Netware file server. You must check that your default
printer on the remote host corresponds to the right one on
your PC. For example, if you print to LPT1 from DOS, use Alt-s
with tnvt220 to see that Printer is set to LPT1. In Host
Presenter look at the default printer under the Windows Control
Panel.
The cleaner, more expensive option is to get NetWare NFS or
FLEXIP for your NetWare file server so that jobs can be sent there
directly from the remote host.
