- I am trying to print to an HPsi III on a Netware server. The problem we have
- is that the si III is set for PCL emulation. It can switch to postscript via
- an escape code. On the DOS side, if they want to print ps, there is a
- parameter that is set in the netware setup per client (the term eludes me, I'm
- not a Novell sysadmin, and that person isn't here). We don't see anything
- analogous on the Next printer setup.
-
- Now, I can see the printcap definitions. There are lots of fields starting
- with n, like nps, that I know deal with Netware printers, but I can't find any
- reference to them in my on-line docs (I do have 3.0 extended).
-
- Any hints, clues, or even solutions are appreciated.
