Hello All,

I have HP-Laserjet 5M Printer with HP Jetdirect Card.I had configured this printer through Jetadmin.I am Able to take printout from Command Line(lp <file name>)but not able to take printout through Internet Explorer or any internet Browser.
Same Things(Send a print Command through Internet browser) when I apply from Windows Based System I am able to take Printout from there.

Any Idea why only Solaris Based system is giving trouble.

Regd,
Bhawani
 
lp <filename> is printing ASCII (if filename is eg. /etc/hosts)
does
/usr/lib/lp/postscript/postprint /etc/hosts | lp
print, too?

Afaik the Browsers generate PostScript code whwn pressing the Print button...

Regards
