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

Re: [U2] Is there a method to suppress printing the Banner page after the fact?
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 Dave Taylor President Sysmark Information Systems, Inc. 49 Aspen Way Rolling Hills Estates, CA 90274 800-SYSMARK (800-797-6275) (O) 310-544-1974 (P) 800-339-1497 (F) 310-377-3550 Your Source for Integrated EDI Translation and DataSync Integration www.sysmarkinfo.com - Original Message - From: Denny Watkins [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org Sent: Friday, October 21, 2005 7:30 AM Subject: RE: [U2] Is there a method to suppress printing the Banner page after the fact?

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.
