Printer setup problem continued

Lanier 2138 CMF printing from HP unix 10.2 Update
went out today after we relocated machine to locations that has various Laser printers to test against.

If I used the IP address for one of their laser printers known as LJIT which uses config file 257.cfg
it prints fine.

I then tried modifying the burl file compared to the LJIT file. The burl & 15.cfg were created last week.

Only needed to change the ip address and devtype="PJL" line in burl file

located in /opt/hpnp/admin/printers/15.cfg
in the 15.cfg file compared to the 257.cfg
changed
if [ "$MODEL" != "net_ljx000" ] line 130

PERIPHTYPE="lj4000" line 284

MODEL="net_ljx000" line 294

in config.bbx changed
alias burl ">lp -s -n $COPIES -dburl -onb 2> /dev/null" "term prtr" SPCOLS=136,COPIES=1,EOL=WRAP

after making changes in VI
tried to print job - still no better. (Do I need to run some utility or down/up spooler?)

after just looking at the 15.cfg file I expect it is the installation script which needs to be run either by itself or from somethin like an HP jet admin for unix utility, do you know how it is properly used.

It seems that the burl file uses the 15.cfg file and an original printer model script located in model.orig directory (haven't looked at yet)

by the way the files included in this email are prior to 3/24 modifications.
