In ifhp 3.4.4, set pjl_ready_msg to "Printing: \%s{n} \%s{J}" and
pjl_display_size to 32 for my HP 8100DN. I figured this would put the
obvious up on the screen, as it does with another host running a different
printer and older (slightly hacked[1]) version of ifhp. Instead, for the
duration of the job I get just the user name in the display while the job
is printing, then at the end I get the expected string for just a second
before "READY" reappears.
I suppose that RDYMSG is supposed to control what's printed while the
printer is idle, but something (probably the pagecount code) is erasing
this. But what controls the display while the job is printing? And how
can I get a message to stay on the screen while the printer is idle?
Thanks!
1) My slightly hacked version puts "Printing: user" while the job is
printing and "Last Job: user" while the printer is idle. I did this a
very long time ago, and that patch doesn't match up with current
versions.
