Advanced Server Overview and Installation

Configuring Advanced Server for UNIX Configuration for shared client printer

Product Manual U7613-J-Z815-6-76

The command creates a device for the shared client printer in the spooler administration

called printername. If printername is not specified, clientname is used as the name of the

printer. After successful completion, UNIX users can print to the client printer by issuing the

following command:

For the LP spooler: lp -d printername filename

For Spool V4.x: xpadd -job -de printername -dr filename ...

Examples:

To add an HP LaserJet printer attached to the client computer named pc2 via the CLIPR

interface, type the following command:

addclipr pc2 "" hplaserjet

To add a postscript printer that is attached to the client computer named pc3 and which is

shared with the share name printer3 (PRSRV interface), type the following command:

addclipr pc3 "" POSTSCRIPT PRSRV printer3

The device connection for the shared client printer is thus entered in the spooler adminis-

tration; you have now created the printers, e.g. pc2.

You can now use this printer from UNIX with following commands:

for Spool V4.x:

xpadd -job -de pc2 -ct SIMPLE -dr...

for the LP spooler: lp -d pc2 ...

Purpose:
