- It's probably a FAQ, but:
-
- I'm using Interleaf 5.3.0 / sun4 on a SPARCstation 1+ under
- Sun OS 4.1.1., connected to a HP Laser Jet III D with a
- HP PostScript Cartridge, 4 MB RAM.
-
- It doesn't print (most times) !
-
- Step by step:
- The Postscript-files go to the right queue, stay there for
- some time and with a little luck some of them appear on paper.
- After this act the printer stays busy forever: Message Daten-
- bearbeitung (data execution) and blinking LED. The following
- job disappears - PS ready.
- Most jobs disappear after some execution time without any notice.
- The (test-)jobs are quiet small, about 60 kByte, 2 pages.
-
- I used Interleaf 4 for years at the same devices without
- complaints. (Oh - there was one "unprintable" example too,
- I never found the significant difference to the "friendly" ones
- and so our local sales- and servicemen didn't).
-
- Usual Postscript-Files (Net, Sun-Demos) can be printed
- without problems.
-
- If I produce pl-files, use pl2ps following to the printcap-entry
- and execute lpr -Pmyqueue xy.ps, the same things will happen.
- I can't apply pageview to the Interleaf ps-files due to
- Error:undefined, stack: executing a4tray.
-
- The tip: comment out the line /mark 0 def in pspro.ps_5_3_0
- caused no changes.
-
- BTW a second question: how do I compose (R1 a ") with a Sun
- Type 5 keyboard: the R1 key is missing :-)
-
-
- So far, all hints are welcome.
-
-
- Thanks, Jan
