USE of HP-UX default spooler for Network printing.
Hi All,

Can anyone inform me; is it possible to use HP-UX (11i) spooler to print in network printer?

And is there any limitation on print spooler queue size??

Suppose due to some reason, the printer get halted and you have print jobs in spooler queue, then after printer resume printing once again, will it take the print jobs automatically from the spooler or we need to put the print jobs once again in the spooler.

Also can anyone tell me what is the default spooler type/name for HP-UX 11i server (for example, whether it is BSD spooling system or SVR4 spooling system)

Any answer to all my above questions will be appreciated.




Thank you.

Regards,
Sundeep.

lp

LP(1)							    BSD General Commands Manual 						     LP(1)

NAME

     lp -- front-end to the print spooler

SYNOPSIS

     lp [-cs] [-o option] [-d printer] [-n num] [file ...]

DESCRIPTION

     lp is a front-end to the print spooler as required by the IEEE Std 1003.2 (``POSIX.2'') specification.  It effectively invokes lpr(1) with
     the proper set of arguments.  It generally prints the named files on the destination printer.

     The following options are available:

     -c      Make the lp command exit only after further access to any of the input files is no longer required.  The application can then safely
	     delete or modify the files without affecting the output operation.

     -d dest
	     Specify a particular printer.  If no -d is provided on the command line, the contents of the environment variables LPDEST or PRINTER
	     (with this precedence) are taken as the destination printer.

     -n num  Specify that num copies of each of the named files shall be printed.

     -s      Silent operation.

     -o      Printer specific options.	Not supported, provided only as a compatibility option for SVR4.

ENVIRONMENT

     As described above, the variables LPDEST and PRINTER are examined to select the destination printer.

SEE ALSO

     lpr(1)

STANDARDS

     The lp command is expected to comply with the IEEE Std 1003.2 (``POSIX.2'') specification.

AUTHORS

     This implementation of the lp command has been written by Jorg Wunsch.

BUGS

     The IEEE Std 1003.2 (``POSIX.2'') specification does not provide any means to print non-text files.  It rather requires the files to be
     printed to be text files limited to reasonable line lengths and printable characters.
