RE: [U2] Is there a method to suppress printing the Banner page after the fact?

2005-10-24 Thread Paul Tykodi 
Dear Denny,

The functionality of LPR client printing is described in RFC 1179. This
style of printing creates two files for every print job as follows:

1. Data File - Information to be printed

2. Control File - Job ticket information for printing the data file
(formatting requests, number of copies, characters per line, banner page
Y/N, etc.)

The RFC outlines the structure of the LPR control file format in terms of
the number of bytes and what each entry means. You could create a parsing
program, as previously mentioned, to scan the control file for each spool
queue entry created in order to flip the banner page value in the control
file from Y to N.

HTH

Best Regards,

/Paul

Re: [U2] Is there a method to suppress printing the Banner page after the fact?

2005-10-21 Thread Dave Taylor 
Denny,

The feature you want, to change the print queue on a print job that is on
hold in the spooler, is provided for in the SP.EDIT command, according to
the Universe Reference Manual.

When Spool(ing) from the SP-EDIT command, the print job will normally be
spooled to the printer associated with the print queue that was in effect at
the time the print job was created.

Using the "R" option with the SP.EDI command, however, causes the print job
to be spooled to the printer associated with the print queue *currently* in
effect.

This means that you can re-issue a SETPTR command after a print job has been
created to establish a new print queue for your workstation and then SP-EDIT
(R the print job and spool it to the just newly-established  print queue.

hth and htw,

Dave

You would need to write a "driver script", send the report to /dev/null
(device)and use the script to edit the data. You could use "sed" which I
seem to recall is pretty OK with this or alternatively "awk"

We are running UniVerse release 9.6.2.5 under IBM AIX 4.3.3 on an IBM F50.

Question:

Is there a way to suppress the printing of the 'banner' page after
a print job has already been submitted and is in the queue but did
not have the parameter NHEAD or NOHEAD set to suppress printing the banner?

2005-10-20 Thread Ray Wurlod 
If you look at the print-ready file in usr/spool/uv (or wherever it is that 
your UVSPOOL points to), it already has the banner page; this is added by the 
generating process.  So, the only way you could "suppress" the header would be 
to direct the job to another "printer" that uses a special driver to remove the 
banner page.  Such a script should not be difficult to create; you seek to 
remove all lines up to and including the second form-feed character.
