Configure Lanier printer LD345c with hppi on hpux11.i

[Robert Zehnder]

What printer do I have to select if I want to use a Lanier printer LD345c on hpux11.i using hppi?

Do I have to install a new driver or can I select a HP printer driver.

How can I install the new driver?

I quickly checked the support webpages of lanier.com: apparently they don't provide any model scripts for HP-UX.

The LD345c is apparently a color printer, and looks like it understands PCL and/or PostScript. You might start with the choice "HP LaserJet Printer not given in this list".

Using hppi, you could choose "HP LaserJet Printer not given in this list" which would assign the net_genericprinter model script to the printer. Once you have it added you can go back into the configurable parameters and choose a different generic script to test different functionality. With Lanier multifunction printers (printer/scanner/copier) I've had success changing the model to the net_ljx000 model script.

HP Laserjet Printer not given in the list with changing option to Ljx00 works only for
textfiles, but not for ps files.
