HP/UX Configuration
To configure a print server using HP/UX 10.x, use the same program and
these steps:
1. When you get a 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 server as the Remote System Name.
7. Enter the desired print server service name (BINARY_P1 for binary files
or TEXT_P1 for text files) 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.
11. You should now be able to print using the lp -d command with the printer
name.
NOTES:
♦ The configuration for HP Distributed Print Services and for earlier
versions of HP/UX is slightly different.
♦ The print server can also be configured as a JetDirect card using HP/UX.
To do this, you will need the HP UNIX Host Printing Software (part of
HP's JetAdmin for UNIX).
