A question for Xenix afficianados-- Under 4.2BSD Unix one
can provide info about printer control codes to the system
via the file /etc/printcap (analogous to termcap). In
Xenix/286 for my PC-AT there is no such file. Will
Xenix recognize such a file if I create one? Is there any
other way of getting the system to send the correct control
codes to my printer other than by writing a custom printer
driver?
