Hi,
Robocat has given me the following to install the HP Jetdirect software
Solaris box to configure LaserJet print queues with JetDirect.
http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/SoftwareIndex.jsp?lang=en&cc=us&prodNameId=18924&prodTypeId=18964&prodSeriesId=27351&swLang=8&taskId=135&swEnvOID=1088In our case the printer model is LaserJ 4250
After install, a spooler configuration program in /opt/hpnpl/hppi allows us to configure hp printer queues.
It's now printing fine double-sided but along short edge of the paper.
Users now wants doubleside along long edge of the paper (ie we
flip on the long edge to read the back page of paper). MSWord
printing to this same printer came out doubleside on the long edge
& users can't find any Printer Setup on the LCD that could configure
this setting.
How do we do this? I've indicated the section below (by <<==) which is probably
where doubleside printing is configured :
sun02:/tmp > /opt/hpnpl/hppi
