Question about remote printing and also about wyse and infoExplorer?

Question:

Remote printer  to a SCO machine.  Need to send special  control
characters to the printer.

Since this is a remote printer, AIX expects the remote system to do
the formatting. He can use the -o flag on enq to pass flags to the
backend, since he needs to pass a flag to the remote system he is
going to try enq -oof .  This is because rembak will pass the -o
flagged items to the remote system.

The other option is to set-up multiple queues and for each one specify
rembak with the appropriate -o flag backend.   Then he can have users
send to different queues.

The last questions was about using a wyse 50 terminal and
infoexplorer.  He can't see the hot links to other articles.

He needs to change his terminfo file for wyse to remove the
attributes for highlighting.  When highlighting on a wyse, the wyse
inserts a character and info will not allow this so the highlight is
not used.  By removing the appropriate attributes in terminfo you end
up dimming the links.

Things to replace:

 smso=\\E),
 rmso=\\E),
 smul=\\E),
 rmul=\\E),

Then re-tic the wyse.ti file.
