Printer Schema
The new printer schema,
IETF<draft-fleming-ldap-printer-schema-02.txt>, is used to create the
printer objects that are relevant to the printer configurator services. The
draft printer schema can be obtained from IETF web site at
http://www.ietf.org. For the detailed structure information of the new
printer schema, see Appendix C. You must import the new printer
schema into the LDAP Directory Server to create new printer objects.
NOTE The LDAP printer configurator supports any Directory Servers that
support the LDAP printer schema based on
IETF<draft-fleming-ldap-printer-schema-02.txt>.
An Example
The following shows a typical printer object entry:
dn: printer-name=printer1,ou=printers,dc=cup,dc=hp,dc=com
objectclass: top
objectclass: printerabstract
objectclass: printerservice
objectclass: printerlpd
printer-name: lj81003
printer-uri: lpd://hostA.hp.com/lj81003
printer-location: 47L
printer-make-model: hp laser jet 81003
printer-service-person: John Louie
With the new printer schema, you are able to create printer objects for
the LP printer configuration.The minimum information for a printer
object entry is the local printer name, remote hostname, and the remote
printer name. The remote hostname is the system or device that the
remote printer is connected to. The remote hostname must be the fully
qualified name.
