Adding network printer on HP-UX 9.x

Gerry Weaver — Thu, 19 Sep 2002 04:15:08 GMT

I have recently come across a customer that is still using HP-UX 9.x for a legacy application. I need to configure a network printer. I went into SAM, but I don't see how to specify the printer IP address. Any help would be very much appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
Gerry

Hi,
Do you have jetadmin installed on that server?
Update /etc/host file with IP address and printer name then use the printer name instead of IP address.

Hi

Or add as a remote printer and give the ip address for the remote machine and queue

It uses a strange printer script but you can then print.
