| 7052.2 | other suggestions | KILRB1::BACCARI | | Wed Jan 29 1997 12:58 | 16 |

I Tried the suggestion in .1, the problem worsen. The
printer toggled between 'processing' and 'waiting'
states and never printed, so I put the lang.sense back
to off.
I forgot to mention, this printer is also connected to
VMS/LAT using DCPS.
Are there any other suggestions?
Thanks,
Lou.

DCPS really prefers that the printer be set to language sensing=off and
language=postscript.
Are you trying to print text, postscript, or both from the unix side?
You may need to insert PJL commands to install explicit settings, per job.

| PJL commands start with a UEL (Universal End of Language).
This is the escape sequence <ESC>%-12345X
where <ESC> is the escape character, ASCII code 27.
The PJL langauge switch commands are
@PJL LANGUAGE = POSTSCRIPT
and
@PJL LANGUAGE = PCL
PJL commands are terminated with line feeds, which should nnot be a problem
with a Unix system.
So what you want to send will be
<ESC>%-12345X@PJL LANGUAGE = POSTSCRIPT<LF>
and
<ESC>%-12345X@PJL LANGUAGE = PCL<LF>
where <LF> is the line feed character.
