Calcomp_1023 (long)
I have gotten the Calcomp 1023 plotter to work fine for a 1Mb plot file
using lpr on the ttya port with the serial port patch installed. This
plotter can emulate many different types of plotters and I have tried
a couple of different ones. Here is what I have tried and I will update
you as I try different combinations of things.

The calcomp 1023 plotter is known as a non-roll feed plotter. This means
that you must change sheets of paper between plot jobs. So if you send
multiple plot jobs to the queue with lpr, this plotter starts the next plot
right after the last plot, on the same piece of paper!
So, to get around this problem we must send a halt request to the plotter
to kind of put it offline in between plots so that we can change the
paper. To do this I created a file called "nr" and its contents are as
follows:
NR;
I then have to send this file to the plotter with lpr in between plot jobs.
For instance,
lpr plot1
lpr nr
lpr plot2
lpr nr
lpr plot3
And so on, and so on. This NR; is the "not ready" HPGL command which the
calcomp recognizes in its version of HPGL called CPGL.

Calcomp1023_VAR
Here is the printcap for the 1023 that we give out to the VARs:

this all-purpose printcap:

The Calcomp 1043 plotter
------------------------
I did some testing with a Calcomp 1044 plotter(which is the roll-feed version
of the 1043) yesterday and was able to get a set of working settings for
the 386i. I was able to get a 1Mb plot file to go out to the plotter no
problem.
The plotter settings that I used were the following:
PCI mode
7 data bits
1 stop bit
even parity
xon/xoff= yes
direct control =yes or no
full duplex
sync code = 2
sync code value = 022
internal clock
term muting = no
chksum enable = yes
isochronous = no
The switch bank on the back of the plotter had switch 5 on and all the
rest off. This meant it was set to normal DTE.
The printcap entry used for the plotter was the following:

Calcomp 104x plotter
I did some testing with a Calcomp 1044 plotter(which is the roll-feed version
of the 1043) yesterday and was able to get a set of working settings for
the 386i. I was able to get a 1Mb plot file to go out to the plotter no
problem.
The plotter settings that I used were the following:
PCI mode
7 data bits
1 stop bit
even parity
xon/xoff= yes
direct control =yes or no
full duplex
sync code = 2
sync code value = 022
internal clock
term muting = no
chksum enable = yes
isochronous = no
The switch bank on the back of the plotter had switch 5 on and all the
rest off. This meant it was set to normal DTE.
Also, probably a grey area for most users out there: The plotter had the
most current ROM pack on it. This particular plotter can switch ROM packs
around. There is also a CPGL ROM pack (as opposed to the PCI ROM pack
that I had on the plotter) that emulates HPGL(Hewlett-Packard Graphics
Language) that some users may think they have, but this is an additional
ROM pack that must be purchased. Anyways, a user cannot tell by looking
at the ROM pack whether they have the most current ROM pack or not. They
need to call their local Calcomp Field Service office and they can help
them with this issue.
The printcap entry used for the plotter was the following:
tim:\
:lp=/dev/ttya:sd=/var/spool/tim:br#9600:sf:sh:mx#0:\
:ms=cs7,parenb,-parodd,-ignpar,ixon,ixoff:
The plotter was not added thru SNAP!
Anyways, this is a tested configuration for the 104x Calcomp plotters and
the only thing that the customer might want to check if this doesn't work
is to find out what rev of the ROM on the plotter they are running.

HP7475 plotter (LONG FILE)
I have had numerous calls in making a plotter work on a 386i serial port whether it is on ttya or the second serial port. There are two common configurations for plotters.
Make sure that the printcap and ypprintcap is the same file as we all know this was a known problem in 4.0.0 for remote printing.
For a plotter with 9600 baud, 7 databits, 1 stop bit, even parity and xon/xoff include the following in the printcap (common config for autocad):
:br#9600: \ #sets baud rate
:sh:sf: \ #suppresses header and footer
:xs#040000: \ #sends a cntl Q for DTR
:ms=-parityenb,-parityodd,-crtscts,-cstopb,cs7,ixon,-opost: #comm parameters
For a plotter with 9600 baud, 8 databits, 1 stop bit, no parity , and xon/xoff include the following in the printcap:
:br#9600: \ #sets baud rate
:sh:sf: \ #suppresses header and footer
:xs#040000: \ #sends a cntl Q for DTR
:ms=-parity,-crtscts,-cstopb,cs8,ixon,-opost: #comm parameters
Reference: man pages termio on ms options
Most plotters do not utilize pin 8 on the serial cable. In the Owner's Bulletin pg. 16 it tells you to put the following in rc.local:
/usr/etc/ttysoftcar -y /dev/tty
There is also a known problem with the serial port that was suppose to have been fixed in 4.0.1. The serial port prematurely closes before it is finish plotting. Tim is working on this problem with ecd. A temporary fix is to run the following cat > /de
>
v/tty$
$ should be replaced with a, m0, or m1 depending on the serial port being used.
This will dedicate a window but this is temporary until a patch can be made.
Also note for those adding second serial ports. The serial port that comes with the RR does not deal with interrupts that DOS cares about. This port should be assigned to /dev/ttya at all times. Using /dev/ttym0 the serial port should be assigned inter
>
rupt 4 and for /dev/ttym1 should be assigned interrupt 3. Therefore, a total of three serial ports can be added.
Another note for AutoCAD users:
There is a problem running a digitizer on a second serial port. Must use digitizer on /dev/ttya and plotters on second serial port. Autodesk is working on this problem.

HP 7550A pen plotter
I'll start with the HP 7550A pen plotter. Now keep in mind that these
are suggested workarounds and are not guaranteed, so don't hold me liable
if they do not work. I'm merely relaying information from my customers.
Anyways, the printcap, cabling, and plotter settings that are needed for
this plotter to work on the serial port are the following:

Now we aren't finished yet. In some instances this may be all you need, but
the majority of the time you will still need to type the following command to get the plot to complete:
cat /dev/ttya > /dev/null &
This will be running in the backgroheck ht
power cycle your plotter this process will die and you must retype it in a
commands window. This line can also be started from rc.local at boot up
time.

HP 7580 (A SUGGESTION! LONG FILE)
This workaround was suggested by a VAR and has spooling working fine for his AutoCAD plot files. It consists of using a C program as an output filter that changes some output settings while the plot file goes through it. He also had to send a file in be
>
tween plots which actually turned the plotter offline so that the plotter would not start the next plot in the queue on top of the one it just finished. This allows the user to change paper in the plotter, put the plotter back online(manually), and watch
>
the next plot start up.
His printcap entry looked like the following:
plotter:\
:sh:\
:lp=/dev/ttya:\
:sd=/var/spool/plotter:\
:of=/home/user1/spf:\
:lf=/var/adm/plotter_errs:
where user1 is the name of some user with home directory in
/home/user1.
Here is the C program spf.c that he used as the output filter. It must
be compiled first before it can be used. The command line for compiling the
program is: cc -o spf spf.c.
#include <stdio.h>
#include <sys/types.h>

The other file that gets printed in between plots is just a file thatcontains one HPGL command. It is "NR;", which causes the plotter to become "not ready" so that the paper can be changed. The plotter is
then put back online. So a typical plotting sequence with this method
might look like this:
plot1
/home/user1/nr #file with NR; in it
plot2
/home/user1/nr
plot3
/home/user1/nr
Now remember, this is not guaranteed, only a suggestion.

HP 7595
This is a non-roll feed plotter. The method for using this plotter is identical for using the 7550A plotter. One added note to keep in mind: a field called tr can be added to the printcap entry that prints out a trailer string after the plot is finishe
>
d. This trailer would be the HPGL command 'AF;' which tells the plotter to do a full page advancement before starting the next plot. Using this method, spooling has worked for some VARs. So the new field in the printcap entry would have the form
:tr=AF;:
and could be put anywhere in the printcap entry for the plotter.

HP 7595 Draftmaster
I have received a printcap entry from a VAR who has gotten his
HP 7595 Draftmaster I to work on the ttya, ttym1, and ttym0 serial
ports on the 386i. The AT serial card he has in his 386i is made
by JDR and is called the 286/386 Multi-I/O card(part#MCT-ATIO).
He configured the ports on the card as ttym0 and ttym1. He also had
an upgrade kit for the card called the Serial ATIO kit.
Here's the entry he has gotten all 3 serial ports to work for his plotter:
(His 386i was configured as a standalone, but will be put up on a
network soon):
Note: the lp field can be set to /dev/ttya, /dev/ttym1, or /dev/ttym0.

HP_Laserjet_IIP, IID(pcnfs ok)
There are a couple of new models of hplaserjet; Model IIP and IID. The
following printcap works with the hplaserjet on a sparcstation1.
Note that you need to use a filter to remap unix files to dos format.
This filter can be found on the Sun386i under /usr/lib/hplaserjet.
My customer has also tested it with pcnfs and says it works great.

HP laser Jet PLUS!! (THIS IS A VERY LONG ONE!!)
1. A new printcap entry is needed. The generic_hp entry in the /etc/ypprintcap
file on the yp master should read as follows:
generic_hp:\
:pw#80:\
:ms=-parity,-cstopb,-clocal,-cread,crtscts,ixon,-opost:of=/usr/lib/hplaserjet:
2. Install the file at the end of this message into /usr/lib as hplaserjet by:
mount -o remount /usr
cp hplaserjet /usr/lib
chmod 555 /usr/lib/hplaserjet
3. Decide which interface you are going to use - serial or parallel port
4. Connect the printer to the 386i with the appropriate cable
5. Configure your hplaserjet to use the serial port or parallel port by using
the printer manual. For the laserjet II, its called "Getting Started with the
LaserJet series II printer", HP Part number (on the bottom right hand corner)
is 33440-90908.
For the serial port, use instructions on pages
3-7 and 3-8. NOTE that you must configure the printer to use the RS-422
interface.
For the parallel port, use instructions on pages 3-9
6. use SNAP to add the printer:
- use 9600 if the serial port is chosen
- choose laserjet as the printer type.

HP Laserjet Printers & 386i (LONG FILE)
Recently on sun-spots and various other places I have seen many people
trying to configure HP Laserjet printers to run on their sun systems.
On the 386i we have aready solved this problem with the following
printcap entry and a special printer filter. This filter and printcap entry
also work on a 3/260 using and HP colorjet printer.
One note of caution, make sure that your customer reads the manual for the
printer and has the proper cable, the HP laserjets will NOT work on a null
modem cable.

I have a printcap that works for ARIES software running
on a SPARCstation1 serial port for printing graphics
images only! The images are created by the ARIES HP PaintJetXL
driver software, and are printed on an HP PaintjetXL.
DIP switch settings on the HP PaintJet XL were:
ddduudd where "d" is down and "u" is up
These DIP settings correspond to 9600 baud, even parity, XON/XOFF.

2. The same printcap entry as above.
3. Plotter settings:

Plotters and Sparcstation 1's
I sent the following printcap to a customer that was having problems with
an Inter plotter and a Bruning plotter on the SS1:

This printcap took care of his problems and he said it is working fine.

There is a theory which states that if anyone ever discovers what the universe
is for and why it is here, it will immediately disappear and be replaced by
something even more bizarre and inexplicable. There is another theory which
states that this has already happened. - Douglas Adams
