Printing to a Network Printer directly without Queue

Vallentin, Manfred — Tue, 03 May 2005 09:26:57 GMT

Hello,
is it possible, that i can set a TNA Device to an TCPIP Network Printer without using a queue?

Today, i use a serial device with LTA Port, tommorow i will use the same Printer but with a TCPIP Networkadapter and their IP-Adress.

Have a Idea

Vallentin,

You can create a telnet session to the printer. See Creating and Deleting Sessions in HP TCP/IP Services for OpenVMS Management:

I also think you can create the LTA device, set it spooled so when the file is closed a job is set to a specified queue (which could be a telnet queue or dcps queue or whatever).
