Configuring Remote Nonnetwork Printers
To configure a nonnetwork printer that is connected to a remote HP-UX system for printing local
language characters, the setnetlp command should also be used to set up the LP destination using
the LPD protocol. In this case, the network system name should be the hostname
4
or the IP address of
the remote system, and the remote printer name should be the LP destination name of that printer on
the remote system.
The model file used on the remote system for that printer should be compatible with the model file
used on the local system. For maximum compatibility, the local model file should be the same as the
remote model file. With this setup, two banner pages are printed by default: one from local model file
and one from remote model file. Because it is difficult to suppress the remote banner page, the local
banner page should be disabled so that only the remote banner page is printed. All the processing
and font embedding are done in the local model file; the remote model file should just pass through
the processed output of the local model file with the generation of the remote banner page.

If the remote system is on a different subnet, the fully qualified hostname (e.g., lj3.jp.hp.com) is required.
