pPrinter- How To Convert Q to UPPERCASE



Question:
Printer - need to translate lower case to upper case.  Model 7012-380

Response:

Desc:   Tom has 3 print printers.  2 of them can be programmed to
        convert lowercase to uppercase.  The other printer cannot
        print mixed case, but cannot be programmed to convert
        lower to uppercase.  He wants to know how to modify the print
        queue so lowercase is converted.

Act:    The option to 'convet lower to UPPER case' is available when
        adding a printer- but is only valid when not using a print queue,
        but printing directly to the device instead.

Next:   researching
        call Tom back at 919-778-0256x211

Response:

Act:    Unable to find much info in InfoExplorer.

        I tested a suggestion in Austext and
        tried chaning the filter on one of our ASCII print
        queues.  Entering:

                lsvirprt
                \
                fc=/bin/dd conv=ucase 2>/dev/null
                f=c

        set up a filter to convert all jobs sent to the queue to
        uppercase.

Next:   called Tom back and he tried it and was successfull too.
        closing call
