— Creating a Print Queue Using est4511add/estbwadd

You can create a print queue using est4511add/estbwadd.

Creating a print queue

1.

Log on to the root account.

2.

Enter the following command:

For e-STUDIO4511 Series

est4511add <queue name> <host name or IP address>

For e-STUDIO450 Series and e-STUDIO280 Series

estbwadd <queue name> <host name or IP address>

SUPPLEMENTS:

This command creates a print queue using the system’s lpadmin command. It also
creates a configuration file that has the destination IP address or host name. Use
the configuration file to change print queue parameters.

The lpadmin command stores the printer interface file in the /etc/lp/interfaces direc-
tory in a file with the same name as the print queue. The configuration file is stored
in the /etc/lp/interfaces directory in a file named <queue name>.conf.

Under Linux, the printtool (or equivalent) utility must be used to add the printer into
the lp printing system after executing the est4511add or est 450add command.

— Creating a Print Queue Manually

You can also configure the print queue by adding a remote printer manually.
The procedure varies depending on the operating systems.
