How to Turn Off Banner Pages

  1. Log in as superuser or lp on the print server.

  2. Change directory to the /etc/lp/interfaces directory.


    # cd /etc/lp/interfaces
    
  3. Edit the file that has the name of the printer for which you want to turn off banner pages.

  4. Change the nobanner variable to yes.


    nobanner="yes"

    Change the nobanner variable to no if you want to turn banner pages on again.

    The banner page setting is entered in the print server's /etc/lp/printers/printer-name/configuration file.

  5. Submit a print request to the printer to make sure a banner page does not print.
