The handbook fix corrected the stairing but the printer stubbornly refused to eject the page. Replacing the handbook suggested printf "\033&10H" with a simple printf "\014" solved *that*. In searching through such reference to HP printer control language as I have been able to find, I can find no reference to a \&10H command. Thus my question: can anybody report using the handbook suggestion and having the page eject as it should? Anybody got any favorite information sources on hp printer control language(s)? -LenZ- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
