- Am trying to print to a HP Paintjet connected to a terminal server
- (90L+) from a DECstation 5000/240. The printer is connected via a
- serial-parallel converter. I have set the printcap entry up as for an
- LJ250. When printing (a text file) it does not do a linefeed and so
- overprints.
-
- Is there a dip-switch setting or printcap entry to fix this or perhaps
- an escape sequence that needs to be sent to the printer (if so how?) ?
