Try modify the file /usr/lib/lp/model/standard. Change in the file the line
nobanner="no" --> nobanner="yes"

In /etc/lp/interfaces, look for your printername and edit the file.Quote:>How do I disable print banners when printing to a remote BSD printer

1. Solaris 2 printing non-ASCII files to remote BSD printer
I recently installed Solaris 2.1 (my first Solaris 2.x installation), and I've
been unable to get printing to work completely as it did under SunOS 4.n.m. I
can print plain text, but I can't print man pages or other non-ASCII files.
The machine is now a Solaris 2.1 client of a SunOS 4.1.2 printer server running
TranScript 2.1.
I've tried setting up the Solaris 2.1 configuration both with and without the
PostScript filters and as a "simple", "PS", and "any" printer type. If I "lp"
a plain text file, everything works fine; if I do "man -t foo" or something
else with a non-ASCII content type, the request either just sits in the queue
forever, or I get a mail message saying that the request was "canceled by the
administrator". I've looked in the man pages, the AnswerBook printing and
transition guides, and even a recent Sun Technical Bulletin article on Solaris
2 printing. None of these sources indicated that things wouldn't work as
expected, or what to do when they didn't work properly.
Can anyone shed light on the problem and, hopefully, its solution?
