Red Hat Linux filePro sends extra Form Feed

Greg,

Filepro does not send formfeeds unless you actually put them in the file 
yourself.  Filepro sends linefeeds to fill a page.

We often saw that extra piece of paper at the end of a job and it is 
generated by Printer Interface files to separate jobs printed for 
different people on large systems.

I would look at the printer interface file and see about the logic for 
banners.  I recall stripping the formfeed codes out of printer interface 
files in years past but I do not recall exactly what did it.  I think it 
was the hex codes you would find.

I hope that helps.

Nancy
