HP-UX 11i v1 (B.11.11)
Jetdirect E.10.34 software
Ricoh Aficio MP 3000

I've found other the exact printer model installed, as a network printer on the same network as the current printer i'm having trouble with. The thing is my predecessor installed it. And i don't know how he did it, and it's still working properly.
Is there anyway i can replicate the print queue, then modify to point to the printer i'm trying to re-install?

Since when Ricoh printers have jetdirect?
The only explanation I see is we were trying to configure a true remote printer as if it were a HP with jetdirect...
Unless you have this printer connected to a jetdirect box...

I will look what possibilities we have...
Till then
all the best
Perhaps some other may have some brilliant idea?

From thid doc it seems you may have some specific stuff to load (or what do they mean?)
http://www.coreprintsolutions.com/br...3500-c4500.pdf
under Network/OS:

OpenServer, RedHat Linux, and IBM
AIX; Mac OS 8.6-9.2x, OS X 10.1 or
later; SAP R/3, NDPS Gateway; IBM
iSeries/ AS/400-using OS/400 Host
Print Transform
I just tried in my office and tested:
Code:
ant:/tmp $ /opt/hpnpl//bin/addqueue -q vbetst -h  160.53.12.110
vbetst added to spooler.
ant:/tmp $ lp -onb -olandscape -oc -olm8 -dvbetst /etc/hosts
request id is vbetst-5414 (1 file)
works...
I will now compare with the original...
Code:
ant:/etc/lp/interface $ diff vbetst lpvbe|more

I wonder if you should not download this soft on a windows platform and check the printers configuration...

Question Printing only first line

I am experiencing the same problem with a twist. My customer is submitting jobs from HP UX to a Windows queue within a software from EFI (Electronics for Imaging) called MicroPress. The MicroPress is a PS RIP by default but has a PCL option that utilizes a local PCL print driver to pass the job onto the virtual engine. The MicroPress has virtual engines (queues) that allow for reprint and management of jobs.

If I bypass the virtual engine and print directly to my printer still utilizing the local PCL print driver, I get all the data. When I send the jobs to the virtual engine, only the first line is printed and the rest of the pages are blank. It looks as though there is no carriage return or something.

I am not a Unix guy, but my customer is looking to me for an answer since the jobs print fine directly to the printer.

Any thoughts?

Im not sure I understand your issue:
Is the printer configured on the unix server? and how?
What is this virtual engine stuff? on the HP box?

Is that: I print fine from my HPUX box what using lp command?
