Hello all,
I have the following configuration
• SGD installed on a Solaris 10 x86 machine (application server and SGD
server are the same)
• Mac (MacOSX 10.2) client connecting to the application server (Native
client)
After logging in on the application server I enter the following
command in a terminal session
/opt/tarantella/bin/lp A.pdf
and expect this file to be printed on the default printer of my MacOSX
(BSD unix) box. The printer is a HP 4MP PS and understands PostScript.
The file is actually printed, however it seems that no conversion from
PDF to PostScript takes place. The PDF should fit on one page, the
printer spits out multiple pages starting with
%PDF-1.3 ...
and then only garbage. I browsed through the documentation and found
that the /opt/tarantella/etc/data/default.printerinfo.txt on the SGD
server might need some tweaking. It currently contains the default entry
[UNIX]
"_Default" = "QMS 1060 Print System" PostScript
I also tried
[UNIX]
"_Default" = "QMS 1060 Print System" PCL
and
[UNIX]
"_Default" = "HP LaserJet 4P/4MP PS" PCL
but without more success. So which piece in this puzzle is actually
responsible for converting a PDF or a PNG or whatever to PostScript or
PCL? It seems I am missing an important part.
Thanks a lot for any hints!
Regards,
Andreas
