Dear PowerHouse list,
I'm trying to figure out how to use the PH_PRINTER environment
variable. We are migrating from MPE to Unix, and have installed
PH843D1. I find references to how PH_PRINTER can be used to specify
where to print the output, but I can't find a good example of what is to
be in that variable. Is it just the printer name? (BTW, HP-UX 11i,
Eloquence and C-ISAM, in addition to PH843).
Also, we are planning to use a product named StarPage to print some of
our output -- StarPage can merge data and forms in a manner that
functions similarly to environment files on the HP3000. Is anyone else
here using that product? If so, can you share some tips for how to set
the PH_PRINTER variable when using StarPage?
Thanks!
