No. There are 3 printers connected to a printer server (it is hardware designed and the size of it is just like a hub) and then the printer server is connected to windows printer server.
printer server -------printer server(hardware) ---Printer A (using port1)
| |-Printer B (using port2)
| |-Printer C (using port3)
|---many printer server
Printer A,B and C shared the same IP address, but I can still identify them by printer port number.
For example, in windows, it shows:
Printer A: 10.0.30.66_1
Printer B: 10.0.30.66_2
Printer B: 10.0.30.66_3
So, how can I idenitify them in hp-ux?

printmgr
printmgr(1M) System Administration Commands printmgr(1M)
NAME
printmgr - Solaris Print Manager is a graphical user interface for managing printers in a network
SYNOPSIS
/usr/sadm/admin/bin/printmgr
DESCRIPTION
Solaris Print Manager is a Java-based graphical user interface that enables you to manage local and remote printer access. This tool can be
used in the following name service environments: LDAP, NIS, NIS+, and files. You must be logged in as superuser to use this tool.
Using Solaris Printer Manager is the preferred method for managing printer access because Solaris Print Manager centralizes printer infor-
mation when it is used in a name service environment.
Adding printer information to a name service makes access to printers available to all systems on the network and generally makes printer
administration easier because all the information about printers is centralized.
Solaris Print Manager may be run on a remote system with the display sent to the local system. See the System Administration Guide:
Advanced Administration for instructions on setting the DISPLAY environment variable.
Using Solaris Print Manager to perform printer-related tasks automatically updates the appropriate printer databases. Solaris Print Manager
also includes a command-line console that displays the lp command line for the add, modify, and delete printer operations. Errors and warn-
ings may also be displayed when Printer Manager operations are performed.
Help is available by clicking the <Help> button.
USAGE
Solaris Print Manager enables you to do the following tasks:
Select a Name Service
Select a name service for retrieving or changing printer information.
Add Access to a Printer
Add printer access on a printer client using Solaris Print Manager.
Add an Attached Printer
After physically attaching the printer to a system, use Solaris Print Manager to install a local printer and make it available for
printing.
Add a Network Printer
After physically attaching the printer to a system, use Solaris Print Manager to install a local printer and make it available for
printing.
Modify Printer Properties
After adding access to a printer or adding an attached or network printer, you can modify certain printer attributes.
Delete a Printer
Delete access to a printer from the print client or delete a printer from the print server or from the name service environment.
ATTRIBUTES
See attributes(5) for descriptions of the following attributes:
+-----------------------------+-----------------------------+
| ATTRIBUTE TYPE | ATTRIBUTE VALUE |

|Availability |SUNWppm |

System Administration Guide: Advanced Administration for information on LDAP server replication.
Although users can use the LDAP command line utilities ldapadd(1) and ldapmodify(1)to update printer entries in the directory, the pre-
ferred method is to use lpset. Otherwise, if the lpadd and lpmodify utilities are used, the administrator must ensure that the printer-name
attribute value is unique within the ou=printers container on the LDAP server. If the value is not unique, the result of modifications done
using lpset or the Solaris Print Manager, printmgr(1M) may be unpredictable.
