HP/Ux pcl printing

Hi,

I have a pcl file with a color invoice. Can you please advise me how I can print it directly from Hp/Ux command line to a network printer with a known IP address. The printer model is Xerox Docu Color 1632. How can I configure that printer under HpUx and which command is for printing pcl files?

Thank you for any help,
Pit

Is the printer set up to use lpr/lpd protocol or HP Jetdirect (port 9100) ?

I think it is set up to use lpd/lpr. As I know on the server JetDirect is not installed and there is no approval to do it.
