How can I configure PCL5 for the network printer and where can I verify it from the HPUX 11.11

Hi,

In my experience,
by using Jetdirect software with PCL5,
you can set up the printer

Here is a procedure of download,installation and configuration of them. Have a look at the link :

Easy going at all.

Re: PCL5 configuration

Sorry because I'm not using HP JetDirect and HP printer. Since when I configure the printer and spooler by SAM. It is something to set a default BSD format. In fact, I will use PCL5. Does it configure in HPUX server or the print queue server for PCL5??

Print queue server (not JetDirect) - W2k
Client - HPUX 11.11
Network Printer - non-HP

In the SAM open Printer and Plotter section.
Here click Actions-->Add Remote Printer/Ploter write Printer Name, Remote System Name and Remote Printer Name with the name of printer is called in win2k/xp, and select Remote Printer is on a BSD System.
In the /etc/hosts write the name of the Remote System Name and the ip.
#ps -ef | grep lpsched
lpsched is running ---> ok
Be sure that name Remote Printer Name is equal in the win2k/xp o.s. and the services tcp/ip printer and spooler is up.
