A-Shell Consolidated Reference

BANNER = <Boolean>

(Unix only) BANNER may invoke a printed banner at the start of each printout if such an option is available. On some Unix spoolers, a banner is unavoidable. The default is OFF, though this may be overridden by the correct switch to SPOOL.

Under SCO Unix, you must use the lpadmin –p<printer> -onobanner command to enable the ability to ask for no banner. Failure to do this may cause the spooler to reject all print requests specifying no banner. You may also want to use the scoadmin utility to set the default number of banners to 0.
