printer listing and configuration

Ana Arostegui — Tue, 20 Feb 2001 17:26:56 GMT

Hello All,

How do I list all the printers I am connected to, and how do I configure a connection to an existing network printer on hp. Gotta do this fast, thanks for your help.

Hi Ana,

lpstat -t will give you printers informations.

You can use sam too.

In order to create a printer :

- If this printer has a jetdirect box, you can use jetadmin (http://www.hp.com/cposupport/swindexes/hpjetadmin1875_swen.html)

-If not, you can create remote printe with SAM.

Regards,

Patrice.

Pretty much what has been stated

lpstat -t will give you a listing of the configurations.

SAM or jetadmin will ease the adding of a printer for you.
You state this will be a network printer - get the IP of the printer.
