I get what you are trying to do and can't help with the way your doing it. I just know from my experiences I've never been satisfied with the performance of printers when connected to Sunrays. In our case it's always been USB printers, but configured in Cups as serial printers.

We recently had our Iolan serial port server die. We still use Sunray 1g's and they lack Serial Ports. To get our Printronix Serial printer back online I bought a Digi One SP. It's just a serial port print server. Took less than 5 minutes to get it working once I realized I need a Null modem adapter between the printer and Digi.
We use Cups though since everyone at my company came to Solaris via Linux and we wanted to use what we already knew. Bottom line it's simple and since every printer has an IP address they can be used very easily from any of our SunRay networks.

This probably isn't going to help you out, but I though I'd give my 2 cents. I know I always like to hear about other ways to do things. I tend to get tunnel vision sometimes.....

When I do a 
# cat printingTesttxt > /tmp/SUNWut/units/IEEE802.00144f102cd3/dev/term/a
It work the first time, but when I do it again the DTU is diconnected !!
when I reconnect I have the same thing the cat to the printer work on time, 
and on the second time the DTU is disconnected !!
On the printer doc the printer interface must be set to 9600, 8, N, 1 
what do you think ? and how can I set the printer to 9600, 8, N, 1

Objet : Re: [SunRay-Users] Serial Printer Driver -IBM EPSON Proprinter Emulation-

Are you sure it's a printer driver issue?  Can you cat a text file out

to the printer?



You'll probably want to ensure that the printer is set to 9600, 8, N, 1

Hello Sun Ray Users,
    

  

  
I have a Tally serial printer attached to a Sun Ray 170
    

  
that is compatible to EPSON or IBM Proprinter emulation,
    

  

  
In PrintManager on Printer Model there is only IBM ProPrinter II, but it
    

  
doesn't work for this printer.
    

  

  
I run SunOS TEST 5.10 Generic_118844-26 i86pc i386 i86pc ;
    

 >currentFW=3.1_32,REV=2005.08.24.08.55

  

  
Any one have an Idea on the driver to use ?
    

  

  
Best regards,
    

  
Kamal
