printer driver set up using using the PJL escape codes

Hello,
I have a printer driver using the PJL escape codes. How can I install this driver for HP-UX 11?
Thanks for an advance.

Re: printer driver set up using using the PJL escape codes

Unlike a PC, there are no printer drivers in HP-UX. There are printer scripts which can prepend or postpend special codes, even call a special program to process the print job. If your driver is a script that understands the lpsched calling sequence, then you can add your script to the model directory. To change an existing printer's script, you can simply replace the script for that printer in the interface directory. If the printer is connected using HP's JetDirect interface, you'll need to replace the script in model.orig rather than the interface directory.
