Is there a modified version of PuTTY which doesn't produce one line per print job?

Question

We've been using PuTTY to access a SCO Unix system for some time now and we've recently found the need to use pass-through/slave printing to a client printer attached to the Windows machine accessing the system.

However, this appears to create a print job per line rather than a single print job with every line within. I have heard there's a modified version of PuTTY floating aroudn which handles this type of printing correctly.

Does anyone know of its existance/where to get it or have any other suggestions?

So far I've tried:

• Multiple drivers
• Capturing the output on LPT1 and converting it into a single file then printing, unfortunately this was prone to error and would take too much work.
• Multiple printers
• Printing to image-based printers and PDF generators

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

EDIT:

I've tried the following clients now, with no change:

1. KiTTY
2. Quest PuTTY
3. AniTa 32
4. Aljex Terminal

Answer 1

The cheapest option is probably to ping Simon Tatham, and beg for pass through printing to be included in the next PuTTY release, alternatively you could evaluate a number of the other Windows ssh clients, to see how functional their printing support is e.g.

Tectia Client, AbsoluteTelnet, smartFTP

As a stop gap have you tried this script?

Answer 2

I don't know the program inside-out, so I don't know if it is capable for this, but maybe KiTTY is the one you're looking for..
