Configuring print queues using SAM (HP-UX systems)

To configure print queues using SAM (HP-UX systems)

On HP-UX systems you can use the SAM utility to configure remote print queues.

Before you execute the SAM program, select an IP address for the all-in-one and set up an entry for
it in the /etc/hosts file on your system running HP-UX.

1.

Start the SAM utility as a superuser.

2.

Select Peripheral Devices from the Main menu.

3.

Select Printers/Plotters from the Peripheral Devices menu.

4.

Select Printers/Plotters from the Printers/Plotters menu.

5.

Select Add a Remote Printer from the Actions list, then select an all-in-one name.

Examples: my_printer or printer1

6.

Select a remote system name.

Example: hplj1 (node name of the all-in-one)

7.

Select a remote all-in-one name, and then type the queue name. (The name can be anything,
such as

raw

for example.)

8.

Check for a remote all-in-one on a BSD system. You must type

Y

.

9.

Click OK at the bottom of the menu. If the configuration is successful, the program prints the
message:

The printer has been added and is ready to accept print requests.

10.

Click OK and select Exit from the List menu.

11.
