920.0. "Problems using lpr -N2 on a ln03" by VAXRIO::MIRIAM (Unix Group - CSC/Brazil) Tue Mar 11 1997 20:23

         (Cross posted in POSTSCRIPT_PRINTING)     
     
        Hi,
        
      A customer has a LN03R and he prints from a UNIX system. He wants to
     print two pages on the same side. As Digital UNIX does not support
     PRINTSERVER we are using 'lpspr' utility to create a postscript file.
      The file generated is printed correctly on a LPS20 and LN05 but on
    the LN03, nothing is printed, even an error message is not printed.
        
      I copied this postscript file to a VMS system and from there the file
    is printed successfully on the LN03.
      What is the difference between this two printers? Are there some
    postscript commands not supported on LN03?
        
      Any ideas?
       Thanks in advance,
        
         Miriam
