I need to change printer configuration
We have several Printers that are pointing to a print server that is now defunct. I need to point these printers to the new print server.
I am aware I need to change the configuration in /usr/spool/lp/admins/lp/printers/printername/configuration as well as in /etc/printers.conf. However my questions are these: 1) How do I tell if anything is already queued upto these printers? 2) How do I end these printers in a clean state so that IF anything is queued to them then they wont be losed when I restart the printers 3) how do I restart the printer 4) I was going to use vi to make the changes in the above files, however can you recommend the appropriate Unix commands that might do the changes. By the way I am running Solaris 8 Any help greatly appreciated |
