Virtual printer system administration attributes
The _ _SYS group header attribute stores values for attributes such as the sh, si, and st attributes. The sh and st attributes store the pipelines for the header page and the trailer page.
The si attribute identifies who receives printer-intervention messages when the printer needs attention. A null string specifies that intervention messages should go to the user who submitted the print job. Separate user names with a comma. Use the SMIT Virtual Printers option or the chvirprt command to change the attribute as needed.
For example, si= specifies that the user who submitted the print job should receive the messages, si=mary specifies the user mary should receive the messages, and si=,jim@server02 specifies that both the user who submitted the print job and jim at node server02 should receive intervention messages.
The first character for a system administration attribute is s.
Some typical _ _SYS attributes for a supported PostScript laser printer are:
