Hi All,

I'm relitivly new to Solaris and need some help, I've added a new printer to a Solaris 8 Server and I can't seem to stop the baner page from appearing with each print job.

The printer in question is called itlaser2, I have tried to turn off banners using lpadmin, lpadmin -p itlaser2 -o banner=never, but it keeps appearing!!!

I can specify nobanner whilst printing, lp -ditlaser2 -onobanner <filename>. However this is not good enough as I don't want the users to be forces to issue this option every time they print a document.

the old Laser Printer, itlaser, works fine, everytime a job is sent to it no banner is produced. Unfortunatly this was setup before my time.

I thought about adding a alias to the users login scripts so the -onobanner is added automatically, alias lp='lp -onobanner'. I would prefer to resolve the issue instead of hiding it though.

Any help would be greatly appreciated
