DECserver 300 IP telnet printing controls?

» close window

The Question is:

 
I'm trying to convert 3 printers from LAT to Telnet printing using a DECServer
 300.  I have the print queue defined and I have the DecServer defined.  The
 print gets to the printer but all the print is on the same line.  It does do a
 FormFeed but I can't
make it do a carriage return.  What am I doing wrong?
 


The Answer is :

 
  You do not identify the particular IP package in use.  If this is
  the TCP/IP Services package, please first move to TCP/IP Services
  V5.0A (or later, as available).
 
  Also, please see the DECserver 300 series SET PORT command, and
  specifically please see the HELP on the following eight DECserver
  SET PORT telnet client and telnet server command options:
 
  TELNET CLIENT NEWLINE FROM HOST
     The default value is the two-character string consisting of
     a carriage return followed by a linefeed.
 
  TELNET CLIENT NEWLINE TO TERMINAL
     The default value is the two-character string consisting of
     a carriage return followed by a linefeed.
 
  TELNET CLIENT NEWLINE FROM TERMINAL
     The default value is a carriage return.
 
  TELNET CLIENT NEWLINE TO HOST
     The default value is the two-character string consisting of
     a carriage return followed by a linefeed.
 
  TELNET SERVER NEWLINE FROM HOST
     The default value is the two-character string consisting of
     a carriage return followed by a linefeed.
 
  TELNET SERVER NEWLINE TO TERMINAL
     The default value is the two-character string consisting of
     a carriage return followed by a linefeed.
 
  TELNET SERVER NEWLINE FROM TERMINAL
     The default value is the two-character string consisting of
     a carriage return followed by a linefeed.
 
  TELNET SERVER NEWLINE TO HOST.
     The default value is a single carriage return.
 
  The command syntax is:
 
    SET/DEFINE PORT n TELNET CLIENT NEWLINE FROM TERMINAL string
    SET/DEFINE PORT n TELNET CLIENT NEWLINE TO   TERMINAL string
    SET/DEFINE PORT n TELNET CLIENT NEWLINE FROM HOST     string
    SET/DEFINE PORT n TELNET CLIENT NEWLINE TO   HOST     string
 
    SET/DEFINE PORT n TELNET SERVER NEWLINE FROM TERMINAL string
    SET/DEFINE PORT n TELNET SERVER NEWLINE TO   TERMINAL string
    SET/DEFINE PORT n TELNET SERVER NEWLINE FROM HOST     string
    SET/DEFINE PORT n TELNET SERVER NEWLINE TO   HOST     string
 
  Syntax for the non-printable characters commonly used here:
 
    Carriage Return                         <CR>
    Linefeed                                <LF>
    Carriage Return followed by Linefeed    <CRLF>
 
  The SET PORT TELNET CLIENT takes effect on subsequently-established
  sessions, until the port is logged out.  There is no effect on any
  existing sessions.
 
  The DEFINE PORT TELNET CLIENT commands take effect on DECserver 300
  reboot, and on login of the port.
 
  The SET PORT TELNET SERVER commands take effect on all subsequently-
  established sessions, until the DECserver 300 reboots.  All subsequent
  sessions are also affected.
 
  The DEFINE PORT TELNET SERVER commands take effect on reboot.
 
  Specifically, please try:
 
    SET PORT TELNET SERVER NEWLINE TO HOST <CRLF>
