I am trying to get rid of the banner aka burst page when printing through a jet direct card in a Hp laserjet 4 .MY box is fbsd 2.2.8 I've tried going through the front panel menu's but I can't find the option to set banner=0. I tried telneting into the printer at it's ip address 192.168.1.200 but the is no response( no telnet prompt no password prompt nothing). I don't think its passworded and I'm not sure which port if any I need to try to telnet into to adjust the menu. I've tried search the questions archive but I still can't get rid of the banner page. Any suggestion? I tried several printcap file options including trying to address a specific port ( 9100 ) using a line" :lp=9100@rm=192.168.1.200:\ " Here is my printcap fille as it stands now minus the comment # @(#)printcap 5.3 (Berkeley) 6/30/90 # $Id: printcap,v 1.5.2.1 1998/02/07 19:17:32 ache Exp $ ..... # #lp|local line printer:\ # :sh:\ # :lp=/dev/lpt0:sd=/var/spool/output/lpd:lf=/var/log/lpd-errs: lp|postscript|PostScript|local line printer:\ :lp=:rm=cwlp2:rp=RAW:sd=/var/spool/output/lpd:lf=/var/log/lpd-errs:sf:\ :sh:mx#0: cwlp|HPLJ4:\ :sh:rm=cwlp:rp=RAW:sd=/var/spool/lpd/cwlp:lf=/var/log/lpd-errs:sf:\ :sh:mx#0: lptest|Rm130:\ :lp=:rm=cwlp:rp=cwlp\ :lf=/var/log/lpd-errs:\ :sd=/var/spool/lpd/lptest:\ :sh:mx#0: ...... Is it true that thereis no way to control the banner page from here?
