Adding a printer model script

[Eric Bakken]

Hello All,

I've just replaced an old server that was using printer model script net_lj4x. Do you know where I can get that for the new server?

Thanks,

It is probably already on your new server.

look in /usr/lib/lp/model/

Just about all the laserjet models are the same...

I found it under /opt/hpnpl/sh/net_lj4x

I wonder why it's not showing up in my list while adding a printer?

[Tim Nelson]

if you execute

addqueue -l

it will list the model scripts registered with the jetdirect printer util..

You can always add the printer with any model and then just copy the model script you like to /etc/lp/interface/PRINTER_NAME

It was in the list I just wasn't looking in the right place. It's working now. Thanks for the help,
