New printers installed:
We have 3 new printers online. They are located in ecs 202, 263, and 252.
They are available from the unix side with the names
np202
np263
np252
To print to these you can use the -P option to the lpr command, IE
lpr -Pnp202 filename
You can also change your default printer by setting your PRINTER environment
variable. So if you add this line to the bottom of your .cshrc file:
setenv PRINTER np202
Then you will have np202 as your default printer. See the man pages for
lpr and lpq for more information.
These printers will be available from the NT systems early next week.
New alphanumaric paging service:
A public page alphanumaric page server has been set up. If you wish to
send a alpha page to someone has a alpha pager issued by the department you
can use the sendpage command. Use option -p to specifiy the destination PIN
which will always be the users name. IE, to send me (esj) an alpha page:
sendpage -q -p esj "hi eric"
See the man page for sendpage for more details.
