Step 2. Set up print queues
Set up a print queue for each printer or printer personality (PCL or PostScript) you use on your system.
Different queues are required for formatted and unformatted files. The following table lists the supported
queue types and how the line HP Jetdirect printer daemon server processes each.
Table A-2
Supported queue types
raw
,
raw1
,
raw2
,
raw3
No processing. Treats the data in the queue as a print job already formatted in
the PCL, PostScript, or HP-GL/2 and sends it to the printer without modification.
text
,
text1
,
text2
,
text3
Carriage return added. Treats data in the queue as unformatted or ASCII text,
and adds a carriage return to each line before sending to the printer.
