Installing support for additional printers

Support for each printer is provided as a separately installable package.

To see a list of printers for which support has already been installed on your machine, enter:

smit lssprt

To install support for additional printers, enter:

smit printerinst

If your printer is not supported, you can configure it as a supported printer that is functionally similar to your printer. Otherwise, you can configure your printer as a generic printer. To do this, do one of the following:

Select Other as the printer manufacturer or printer model when adding a print queue for the printer.
Select Other serial printer or Other parallel printer when adding a printer device definition for the printer.
