to configure the printer.

lp -d

command with the printer name.

Notes:

The configuration for HP Distributed Print Services and for earlier versions of

HP/UX is slightly different.

The print server can also be configured as a JetDirect card using HP/UX. To

do this, you will need the HP UNIX Host Printing Software (part of HP's
JetAdmin for UNIX).

TEXT_P1 for text files)

Name of device to add

Notes:

The configuration for earlier versions of AIX is slightly different. Refer to the

Administrator's Manual on the CD-ROM for details.

The print server can also be configured as a JetDirect card using AIX. To do

this, refer to your AIX documentation.

Configuration on Other Systems

The EtherWind can be used with any computer system that supports either the
lpr/lpd protocol or the HP JetDirect card (the EtherWind parallel port is port
9100 while the serial port is port 9101). Refer to your system’s documentation for
information on configuring lpr/lpd or JetDirect print queues.
