We have a situation where we need to convert the LF to CRLF in *some* hold
entries. We created a printer driver to do a unix2dos command on the output
which works correctly in print mode but is bypassed when set to mode 3. I
verified this by adding a line to the driver to output something to /tmp
when activated. The driver, in our case, is just not being exercised when
output is set to hold.

Hmm, I'll try <5> and see what happens.

Thank you sir!

Not sure - When we were first setup with UV 10+ years ago, that was how it
was setup, I've just always copied it for any new printer drivers

5=PR+formname
6=driverfile
7=formname

@ID=PR+formname

And our printcap/cups printername matched the PR+formname

We have the driver setup and it works correctly when mode is 1;  however,
when it is setup to mode 3, it doesn't appear to be activated. On our
system, we don't use the form name but the form number (<7>).  Does the
assignment of <5> somehow make it work for &HOLD& entries?

If you look at the &DEVICES& file, Item name is the FORM NAME

Ex.

Our FORM 7

&DEVICE&  PR7
0001:
0002: /dev/null
0003:
0004: P
0005: PR7
0006: /usr/uv/lpt.drivers/driver.PR7    (<- device driver)
0007: 7
0008: 4
0009: 1
0010: 1
0011: 11
0012:
0013: 1
0014: 1
0015: 1
0016: 1
0017: 8
0018:

In out case:

/usr/uv/lpt.drivers/driver.PR7 looks like:

$ cat /usr/uv/lpt.drivers/driver.PR7
cat - | lp -d PR7


We are on UV10 (RHEL 5)

Subject: [U2] [u2] spooler and &HOLD&

Hello,

Is possible to activate a custom printer driver even when the SETPTR mode is
set to mode 3 (&HOLD&)?  We're running UV10.3.9 on Solaris.

Thanks!
