Printing Problem.

SAMIR SHAH_1 — Thu, 08 Feb 2001 04:01:28 GMT

Hi firends,

(1)

I see following in my rc.log

Starting Xerox Print Daemon.
Output from "/sbin/rc2.d/SXeroxPrintD start":
----------------------------
Starting Xerox Print Daemon.

But still, I am not able to fire printing.

We have network printer called "Xerox N32". I installed it thru its xpadmin utility and assigned correct IP address also.

But still if I give lp -d , it does not print it.

(2) What is the RAW Device?
Can someone suggest me a good book for HP-UX System administration for the novice person.

Thanks.

Samir Shah

It handling by system as row and write directly to the positions. In the raw device You need handle the stuctures, and the block device the system handle it.
