  LPD Printing and Banner Pages? 
 The Question is:
 
We are running UCX v4.2-21.  We have defined the logical
UCX$LPD_VMS_FLAGPAGES according to the TCP/IP Services v3.3 documentation
and have set up remote outbound print queues using UCX$LPRSETUP with cr:on,
pa:on and requested FLAG pages.
We still DO NOT get any FLAG pages generated (they are not in the output
stream at all).
 
We have tried specifying /flag in the Print command and have forced the
/default=flag and /separate=flag in the queue initialization.
 
Print queues using LAT have no problem printing flag pages, but our
intention is to remove LAT from our environment and use TCP/IP services
only.  BUT, we do have one printer that must have flag pages printed because
of its application and location.
 
Can you help?
 
Thanks.
 
 The Answer is:
 
  In the LPD protocol, it is the responsibility of the receiving system
  to generate any appropriate banner page.  The sending system can indicate
  that no banner page should be generated at the receiving system simply by
  omitting the relevant information from the LPD control file, but if it
  supplies the data, the receiving system is free to generate (or not
  generate) the banner page.
 
  If you are sending text files, you can force a banner page to be generated
  locally before the file is sent by configuring a UCX$TELNETSYM relay queue,
  and directing the queue output to your LPD queue:
 
    $ INITIALIZE /QUEUE /START /PROCESSOR=UCX$TELNETSYM -
        /ON="UCX$QUEUE:LPD_QUEUE_NAME"
 
  Effectively, this inserts the banner page into the data stream.
 
  The request to honor OpenVMS flag page settings on the TCP/IP Services
  queue is enabled via the TCPIP$LPD_VMS_FLAGPAGES (TCP/IP Services V5.0
  and later) or UCX$LPD_VMS_FLAGPAGES (TCP/IP Services prior to V5.0), and
  this logical name must be defined at queue startup.
 
  The OpenVMS Wizard generally uses:
 
   $ DEFINE/SYSTEM/EXECUTIVE TCPIP$LPD_VMS_FLAGPAGES 1
   $ DEFINE/SYSTEM/EXECUTIVE UCX$LPD_VMS_FLAGPAGES 1
 
  In combination with the *$LPD_VMS_FLAGPAGES logical name and the settings
  of the OpenVMS host queue, LPD then requests that the receiving system
  honor the request to print the banner -- the receiving system may or may
  not actually be configured to print the banner, however.
