Creating print queues from the command line
1
Before you can create the queue, you must gather the following information: a valid device name, the printer
type, the printer language, and the default print queue settings options.
a
The device name associated with the print queue must exist before you create the queue.
•
You can list the defined virtual devices by running the following command:
# /usr/lexprint/bin/lsdevice -l
•
If the device does not exist, you can create one by running the
mkdevice
command.
For more information, see “Creating virtual devices” on page 17.
b
The supported printer types and languages can be found by running the following command:
# /usr/lexprint/bin/supported_printers
Locate the line listed from the
supported_printers
command that contains the model number of your
printer.
Example:
You want to create a queue for a Lexmark T632. You locate the line matching this printer from
supported_printers
and it looks like this:
Lexmark T632 10LT63x automatic
The printer type is 10LT63x, and the supported language is automatic.
