Make sure your users know the printer names for the printers, since they must type those names on the command line for printing. Create the spooling directory by making the following entries. At the root directory, type: mkdir /usr/spool/lpd cd /usr/spool/lpd mkdir printer_name_1 printer_name_2 chown daemon printer_name_1 printer_name_2 chgrp daemon printer_name_1 printer_name_2 chmod g+w printer_name_1 printer_name_2 where printer_name_1 and printer_name_2 refer to the printers to be spooled. You may spool several printers. The following example shows the command to create the spooling directories for printers used for text (or ASCII) printing and for PCL or PostScript printing.

Make sure your users know the printer names for the printers, since they must type those names on the
command line for printing.
Create the spooling directory by making the following entries. At the root directory, type:
mkdir /usr/spool/lpd
cd /usr/spool/lpd
mkdir printer_name_1 printer_name_2
chown daemon printer_name_1 printer_name_2
chgrp daemon printer_name_1 printer_name_2
chmod g+w printer_name_1 printer_name_2
where
printer_name_1
and
printer_name_2
refer to the printers to be spooled. You may spool
several printers. The following example shows the command to create the spooling directories for
printers used for text (or ASCII) printing and for PCL or PostScript printing.
Example: Creating Spooling Directory for Text and PCL/PostScript Printers
mkdir /usr/spool/lpd
cd /usr/spool/lpd
mkdir lj1_text lj1_raw
chown daemon lj1_text lj1_raw
chgrp daemon lj1_text lj1_raw
chmod g+w lj1_text lj1_raw
Configuring Print Queues Using SAM (HP-UX systems)
On HP-UX systems you can use the SAM utility to configure remote print queues for printing
“text” (ASCII) files or “raw” (PCL, PostScript, or other printer language) files.
Before you execute the SAM program, select an IP address for the HP Jetdirect print server 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

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 a printer name.
Examples
:
my_printer
or
printer1
6.
Select a remote system name.
Example
:
jetdirect1
(node name of the HP Jetdirect print server)
7.
Select a remote printer name.
Type
