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?

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

lpq [ -E ] [ -U username ] [ -h server[:port] ] [ -P destination[/instance] ] [ -a ] [ -l ] [ +interval ] DESCRIPTION
lpq shows the current print queue status on the named printer. Jobs queued on the default destination will be shown if no printer or class is specified on the command-line.

lpq supports the following options: -E Forces encryption when connecting to the server. -P destination[/instance] Specifies an alternate printer or class name. -U username Specifies an alternate username. -a Reports jobs on all printers. -h server[:port] Specifies an alternate server. -l Requests a more verbose (long) reporting format.
