- Hello there,
-
- I installed TCP/IP 1.2.1 on our 386 running OS/2. I setup lprmon to
- monitor lpt1 and send the print job to a postscript printer on an
- Appletalk (or is tat LocalTalk ?) network via aonther Sun workstation.
- I printed a MS Word document, only to get a few pages of postcript
- code from that printer. The source of the problem are the control-D
- at the beginning of the postcript file.
-
- One workaround is to print to a file, edit out the control-D, then lpr
- from an OS/2 command window, but that does not seem like an elegant
- solution. Is there a way to strip those control-D's?
-
- Thanks in advance for any helpful pointers.
