Solaris 9 & JetDirect
I'm working on a Solaris 9 Sun Blade and could do with some tips.

I've been told JetDirect is already installed and running on this machine.

There are two laser printers currently functioning off this machine and I can see entries for both in /etc/hosts with fixed IP's as netprinter1 & netprinter2.

But..

(1) How do I know for sure if JetAdmin or JetDirect is installed?

I've checked the interweb for some pointers but with little success. I have looked in /opt but there is no "hpnp" present. I've tried running "hppi" and nothing happens, I've tried running /usr/bin/jetadmin and again nothing...

(2) Assuming it is how do I start it?

Any help would be much apprciated ...

Ken.

       install-solaris	invokes  the  Solaris  Install	program. Depending on graphical capability and available memory at the time of invocation,
       install-solaris invokes either a text-based installer or a graphical installer.

       The following minimum requirements for physical memory dictate which features are available during installation:
