AXEL Office Server

65

A.2.1 - UNIX

Use the UNIX System Management Tool to add a remote printer. At least, two
parameters are required:

- the name of the remote host: enter the Office Server's hostname (refer to

/etc/hosts),

- the name of the printer: this is the Queue Name entered when the Office

Server was set up.

Run the lp command to use this printer.

Note: some options of the lp command (number of copies, banner, etc.) cannot
be used, because the Office Server is not a UNIX host system and has no hard
disk on which to run a spooler.

- Name of Queue to Add:

- Name of Queue on Remote Printer:

⇒ Queue Name associated with the Office Server's port

- Name of Device to Add:

⇒ device name of printer on AIX
