Configuring a remote printer and adding a queue

Edit online

You can configure a remote printer and add a queue.

The remote host must be configured as a print server.

Use the following procedure if you want to configure a remote printer in addition to spooling print jobs.

Note: If you want to configure a printer without adding a print queue, see Configuring a printer without adding a queue (SMIT) and Configuring a printer without adding a queue (qprt command).
  1. At the system prompt, type smit mkpq and then follow the instructions to complete the task.
  2. After the print queues are successfully created, their names are displayed. Be sure to note any error messages before you exit.
  3. Use the smit chpq to customize the new print queue.
