- We are trying to route PostScript output from a Ethernet connected Macintosh
- to Ethernet connected UNIX printers utilizing NetWare For Macintosh V3.011
- and NetWare/NFS v1.2. The data is being routed from the Macintoshes
- through NetWare to UNIX but the printer (QMS 2000) is unable to print the
- output. We have successfully been able to print to this printer via NetWare
- NFS from DOS/Windows workstations.
-
- Our ATPS.CFG file is as follows:
-
- "Novell Test:novell" -o Noveltst -wb -l -s -f applwpls
-
- We are routing the output to an Ultrix r4.2A system.
-
- We have noted that the PostScript file is 8 bit PostScript but don't know
- if that is causing our problem. We also noted that the Macintosh PostScript
- file separates lines with carriage return rather than line feed as done in
- UNIX. We tried converting these but still were unable to successfully
- print.
-
- If anyone has successfully printed from Macintoshes to UNIX via NetWare
- for Macintosh, NetWare 3.11, and NetWare/NFS 1.2, please contact us either v
- via E-mail or by follow-up. Thanks.
