Unable to set remote printer in AIX

Hi all,
I am a beginner in AIX. I am facing a problem with remote printing in AIX.

HP laser jet 1320 printer is connected to a printer server (PCI Mini - 100U3), which is configured as remote printer from AIX server.

But I am not able to print from the AIX server by using "lp -d TestPrinter qconfig" command. Only blank sheets were printed. However, I can get the print out, when I changed the IP address of the corresponding print queue in AIX to a JetDirect printer (HP laser jet 5SI).

qconfig file:

TestPrinter:
device = @TestPrinter
up = TRUE
host = cdcnim01
s_statfilter = /user/lpd/aixshort
l_statfiler = /usr/lpd/aixlong
rq = TestPrinter

@TestPrinter:
backend = /usr/lpd/rembak

I have tried to examine the PCI printer server to enable TCP/IP and static IP has been set.

What could be the problem?
The setting in AIX for remote printer is different that for a JetDirect network printer?

Your advice on this matter is deeply appreciated.

Regards,
Rainy
