Printing in a Line Printer

[rcandeo]

Hi, I need to print a brazilian document that needs to be printed in a matricial printer with a customized paper.
As the document needs to be printed fast, we have to run the UBE directly to the printer.
We have Novell Netware and the printer is not a local printer, it is configured on the netware.
How can I configure this printer on OneWorld?
All my tests is giving in no printing, unless I configure as a PCL printer, but it prints garbage in this configuration.

Can you setup the novell printer as a UNIX-like lpd share?
Then from the 400 you can do CHGOUTQ (or add an outq) that
printer to your remote host (the name or IP of the novell
server) and queuename... Something like:
CHGOUTQ OUTQ(QUSRSYS/LINEPRN1) RMTSYS(10.0.10.12) RMTPRTQ(epsonfx80)

Also, since it is probably and ASCII-based line printer,
don't check the AS/400 EBCDIC box in the OneWorld printer setup.

If you are trying to access the printer from an NT workstation,
probably the only way it will work is if the novell server can
make an "NT share" of the resource, much like Samba does for
UNIX.

Thank you Segfault, I´ll analise it better.
