Add network printer
I am trying to add a network printer to my local spooler on an hp-ux 11.31 machine. I can ping the printer.
So I entered in hppi and selected 1) Spooler Administration (super-user only) and then 1) Add printer to local spooler, then I entered the printers name and I receive this message:
!! XXX is NOT an acceptable name!!
Either it is NOT a network printer or this host is denied access
to it!
So I make an hpnpadmin -v [printer_name_that_is_in_hosts_file] and get this output:
XXX is a network printer
Printer State : ready to print
myserver is denied access to XXX

Re: Add network printer
> Fail (1)
This means that the printer has been setup to prevent access by any IP address not in it's permitted list. You'll need to contact the printer's owner and ask to have your HP-UX system's IP address added to the printer's permitted list.
In addition, the LJ 4345 is a multifunction printer, a BIG red flag for compatibility with HP-UX. Almost all multifunction printers (from any manufacturer) are host-based, a fancy terminology that means that if you don't see a driver to download, it will never work. The problem is that most MF printers are designed and sold only for PC and Mac users (sometimes Linux). The drivers are very large because they must convert simple text into rows of dots before transmitting the dots to the printer. This is a big computation effort as the font definition files must all be consulted based on the incoming text.
This printer is very annoyingly difficult to identify supported print languages (like PCL5) but the available drivers are for Windows, Macs and Linux -- no HP-UX.
