LDAP-UX Client Services B.04.10 Administrator's Guide (edition 7)
However, if the user attempts to remove the laser8 printer configuration manually, the printer
configuration will no longer be managed by the printer configurator. The user has to recreate
the printer configuration manually in case the laser8 printer is needed. The printer configurator
does not try to create the printer configuration even though the printer object of laser8 still
exists in the directory server.
If the user manually adds a remote LP printer configuration to the client system, the new printer
configuration will not be managed by the printer configurator. The user has to remove the printer
configuration manually if the remote LP printer is no longer needed.
Limitations of Printer Configurator
• The new LDAP printer schema based on IETF<draft-fleming-ldap-printer-schema-02> is imported
into the LDAP Directory Server to create the printer objects.
• LDAP-UX Client Services only suports the HP-UX LP spooler system, network printers, and
printerservers that support Line Printer Daemon (LPD) protocol. The printer configurator
does not support local printers.
• In a global management envoriment, it is hard to determine a default printer for the individual
client system. The LDAP printer configurator treats every printer entry as the regular printer.
The administrator or user requires to manually select a printer as a default printer for the
client system.
