HP Laserjet P1606dn allways prints to pages   
Dear QNX community,

i test  the printer Hp Laserjet P1606dn and it allway print to pages. The first page is the page i want to print and on 
the second one. There is allways:
H<username>
    Proot
        Jstdin
             C<username>
                  Lroot
                       fdfA000xxxx (printfile)
                             UdfA000xxxx (printfille) 
                                                   N

I testet it wit Pp.pc,l phs_to_pcl und on our normal filter Pp.ps.  I also testet is with older version of lpsrvr, lpd, 
lpr. Allways the same result.

Kindly regards

Hans

Hi Hans,

Unfortunately, I do not have HP Laserjet P1606dn to reproduce and test this issue. But this page looks like page banner.
 Try to disable page banner using printer's Embedded Web Server.

Respectfully,
Oleg

Hi Oleg,

thank you for your answer.

This was my idea soome days ago, but I can not find anything like page banners in Embedded Web server of printer.
Everything it looks to make problems e.g duplex and so on are disabled. There is really nothing i can find  

Kindly regards

Hans

Re: HP Laserjet P1606dn allways prints to pages   
Hi Hans,

Sorry for the delay with my answer. Unfortunately, we do not have P1606 and we can't reproduce this issue on available 
printers. Can you try the following config to test the printer. Create /etc/printcap file:

hpps:\
:lp=9100@192.168.1.1:rm=192.168.1.1:\
:sd=/usr/spool/output/hpps:\
:lf=/usr/adm/lpd-errs:\
:mx#0:

where 'hpps' is printer's name, 192.168.1.1 is printer's IP. For usb printer launch devu-prn and change the following 
line in /etc/printcap:

lp=/dev/usbpar0

Launch following commands:

# lpd -l
# lpr -Phpps /tmp/text/txt (print text file)
# lprq -Phpps (show printer's queue)

Send me output the last command.

Respectfully,
Oleg

Re: HP Laserjet P1606dn allways prints to pages   
Hello Oleg,

thank you for reply.  i will test it later. After we had the same problem with another HP Laserjet we searched in 
Internet and found some posts that HP Printer generally print a seperator page if ldp is printing (do not find the link 
yet). Most of the printers have an advanced setting to disable seperator pages but not all and our customer have two 
printers where you can't disable this "feature".

Kindly regards

Hans

Hi Hans,

Please provide additional information to analyze the issue:

1. Both /etc/printcaps files (that works and that based on my example).

2. Output of following commands (for both case with working and with non-working configuration):

# sin arg
# lprc status
# ping <printer_IP>
# lprq -P<printer_name>

3. Command line used to start lpd.

4. Command or description how you send files to print.

Respectfully,
Oleg
