Users of AT&T-compatible UNIX systems can generally use the lpstat or
rlpstat

commands to obtain similar status information. Because this

procedure varies from system to system, refer to your system
documentation for the exact usage.

4. Skip this section if you have completed Step 3, unless you have an SCO UNIX

system.
If you have an HP/UX system, IBM RS/6000 AIX computer, or Sun Solaris 2.xx,
there is no printcap file. This is also true for some other AT&T-based UNIX
systems, as well as many VMS-based TCP/IP software packages (for example,
UCX, TGV Multinet, etc.). Such systems generally use a printer setup program
to define the service name (remote printer), the print server name (remote
machine) or IP address, and the local queue name (spool directory).

In the case of HP/UX 10.xx, the sam program is used to set up the remote printer.
The steps are as follows:

1. Execute the sam program. When you get a list of options, select Printers and

Plotters.

2. Select LP Spooler.

3. Select Printers and Plotters.

4. Select Actions and then Add Remote Printer/Plotter.

5. Enter any name as the Printer Name (this will be the name of the print queue)

6. Enter the IP address of the print server as the Remote System Name

7. Enter the desired print server service name as the Remote Printer Name.

8. Check the box next to Remote Printer is on BSD System.

9. You may accept the default values for the remaining items.

10. Click OK to configure the printer.
