44 TCP/IP AXEL Platine Terminal
Two type of printer can be added:
- Standard Processing: AIX sends a raw file to the AX3000. You can use
a filter by setting the CR-NL filter through the AX3000's set-up. Three
parameters are required:
- Name of Queue to Add: name of the printer accessed by the lp
command
- DESTINATION HOST for Remote Jobs: name of the Platine
terminal (refer to /etc/hosts)
- Name of QUEUE on Remote Printer: PRN name associated with
the AX3000's port (set-up of AX3000)
- Local Filter: AIX uses a formatter filter to send a file processed for the
printer. Then no filter is needed at the AX3000 level.
The first parameter required is the type of the printer. Select the printer in
the list of supported printer. Three parameters are required:
- Name of Queue to Add: name of the printer accessed by the lp
command
- DESTINATION HOST for Remote Jobs: name of the Platine
terminal (refer to /etc/hosts)
- Name of QUEUE on Remote Printer: PRN name associated with
the AX3000's port (set-up of AX3000)
Note: the best way is using the Local Filter method.
The AX3000's printer can now be used by the lp command.
