TCP/IP printing/printservers with AIX5?
Ok... I have tried searching everywhere for some information on how to print to TCP/IP printservers.. but I can't seem to find the info I need.
Has anyone setup something like this with AIX5?
Basically what I have is a Parallel port TCP/IP print server from D-Link which is directly attached to the printer and configured with an IP addy on our network.
How do I send print jobs to this printserver?
I've tried setting up remote printer queue's but it seems to be for remote AIX hosts??
Anyone?!?
Thanks!
