5. The npconfig file is read each time the printer commands
spooler
nn;start
or
startspool nn
are used, meaning if corrections are
needed to the file it is not necessary to restart the HP e3000, only the
spooler. Stop the spooler by using a
stopspool
command, then restart it
using one of the commands described above.
Create or modify the
npconfig file. As a starting point, you can use the
system file npconfig.samp.
For each logical network printer that points to a physical NIC using the
npconfig file entries, make the following minimum entries (assume a
logical device 201 has been set in sysgen
)
:
201 ( network_address = xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
tcp_port_number = 9100
pjl_supported = true
snmp_enabled = false
jam_recovery = false
data_timeout = 30 )
The entry
snmp_enabled = false
must be entered as shown.
If you have other HP LaserJet printers already configured while using a global
setup_file
entry, and you experience font or other difficulties with the
P5000LJ line matrix printers, create a separate setup file which is empty to
override the global entries. This may be required since the P5000LJ printer
uses PCL Level II, which is a minimal set of PCL, and the typical HP e3000
global setup file may contain PCL commands beyond those in PCL II. This will
not affect your ability to use the P5000LJ printer effectively. The syntax for the
setup file is
setup_file
= name.
Use npconfig entries
banner_header
and
banner_trailer
for banner or
trailer pages. Be aware that the default value is “true,” so banners will print by
default.
