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!
