UNIX PRINTING 1 - 7
NC9100h_FM6.0
HP-UX Configuration
In the case of HP-UX10.xx, the sam program is used to set up the
remote printer. The steps are as follows:
1
Execute the sam program. From the list of options, select
Printers and Plotters.
2
Select LP Spooler.
3
Select Printers and Plotters.
4
Select Actions and then Add Remote Printer/Plotter.
5
Enter any name as the Printer Name (this will be the name of
the print queue).
6
Enter the IP address of the Print/Fax server as the Remote
System Name.
7
Enter the desired Print/Fax server service name as the Remote
Printer Name.
8
Check the box next to Remote Printer is on BSD system.
9
You may accept the default values for the remaining items.
10
Click OK to configure the printer.
You should now be able to print using the lp-d command with the
printer name.
If you are using the HP distributed print service, the configuration
procedure is slightly different because you are sending the print jobs
to a file server, which in turn spools the job to the Print/Fax server.
You must therefore know the name of the file server (spooler host) in
addition to the above information. You will add a physical and a
remote printer, and then assign a logical printer to the remote printer
(a unique name that does not match any other name). To print, use
the lp -d command with the logical printer name.
