Good day, We are trying to print using CUPS on z/LINUX SLES10-SP2, however noticed that it does not recognise the ANSI Defined Printer Control Characters
(ie a 1 in column 1 will Skip to line 1 on new page or a - in column 1 will space 3 lines, etc.) I have used Redbook paper on "Printing with Linux on IBM eserver zSeries Using CUPS and Samba" and setup the printer (Brother Laser Printer) using the IBM 4324 (Network Printer 24) Postscript Printer Definition (PPD). Doing a LPR -P Printer_name printout.txt, the ANSI characters get printed out on the page. Not sure which default Printer driver will enable CUPS to recognise these ANSI Printer Control Characters. Also, is there a printer driver / setting in CUPS that automatically detects the data is greater than 80-90 characters and switches the page from Portrait to Landscape. Your assistance is very much appreciated.
