hello all!
got my first network printer configured and running (yeah!) but this
brave new world (:-) has me asking:
in the past, i've always designed my printer file equations to look
like: file lp;dev=lp not: ...;dev=6 (or some number...) and have
always found this to be 'a good thing' :-) the following is from
sysgen:
LDEV: 40 DEVNAME: RCLP OUTDEV: 0 MODE: OS
ID: HPTCPJD RSIZE: 66 DEVTYPE: PP
PATH: NONE MPETYPE: 32
MPESUBTYPE: 0
CLASS: NETLP
i (incorrectly) put 'rclp' in devname thinking that my file equation
for this printer would be: file rclp;dev=rclp but the system comes
back with 'unknown device class' and so i'm using: '...;dev=40'.
is this just how it is with network printers? can 'class' be changed?
my other question is about those pesky 'env' files. i've got a couple
of files defined thru ttutil but i keep seeing all those 'penv' in the
hpenv group and wondering just what they are, if i can use them, if i
can 'look' at them (with something like a ttutil), if i can design my
own, if i should just leave well enough alone (:-)
thanks - donna
