- Smitha,
-
- I read Paul Oldenkamp's reply to your question and generally agree. I set up
- my printer driver a bit defferently, however.
-
- Gprotocol:SASGPSTD
- Gaccess:sasgastd>lj400raw -onb {This is the printer name and a no banner
- option. SAS generates the UNIX Command
- "lp -dlj400raw -onb".}
- <Other stuff left blank>
-
- Devtype:PRINTER

- With this setup I'm able to view a graph in a window (device=xcolor) and then
- print form the graphics window pull down menu (command line). The targetdevice
- value at the time the graph was created automatically routes the printout.
-
- I noticed that you have used the gasfile option to generate a graphics stream
- file. I don't think it will interfere but it may be redundant.
