Keywords: PC-NFS printcap printer Message-ID: <3437@mcdchg.UUCP> Date: 14 Jan 88 16:09:57 GMT Sender: usenet@mcdchg.UUCP Organization: IRISA, Rennes (Fr) Lines: 11 Approved: usenet@mcdchg.UUCP We have at IRISA a network of PC connected to a SUN by PC-NFS and we have a problem when we try to print a PC file with french accents (we use the upper ASCII table entry (128->255)). We need to print 8bit characters on the printer but when we use printcap provideed with PC-NFS, it does'nt work in 8bit mode. Work fine in 7bit mode. Who knows more about RAW mode in printcap ? Thanks. -- Pierre Antoine Angelini mcvax!inria!irisa!angelini
