IBM’s AIX ver. 3.x for Printing with the
OkiLAN 6100e+
This application note describes the configuration of the
printing system on IBM’s AIX version 3.x of the UNIX
operating system. The following specific names will be
used to represent general devices or concepts.
• lj4 - The local queue name on the AIX system to
which print jobs that are destined for a printer
attached to the OkiLAN 6100e+ will be directed.
• OKIPRINTER - The host name of the remote
system which is the OkiLAN 6100e+. For example,
to telnet to the OkiLAN 6100e+ and invoke the
OkiLAN 6100e+ Configuration utility, you would
type telnet OKIPRINTER. A host name is not
required for the OkiLAN 6100e+, the IP Address
may be used.
• yourqueuename - This is the name of the queue
on the OkiLAN 6100e+ and must end with 1 or 2,
depending on the port selected to service the print
jobs.
If FF, LF or NF are the last two letters of the
queue name, the job will be converted
accordingly. See pages IV-15 and IV-16 for more
information on remote queue names.
