Print to a network printer on DG/UX
i need to print a file on a network printer with an ip 128.233.1.6 (for example) on a DG/UX (System V) Release 5.4R3.10 so that when telnet from windows client can print on the network printer.

DG/UX has a nice text menu for admin tasks, so you don't even have to edit any files.
type sysadm
then 5 (Device)
1 (Printer)
1 (Devices)
1 (Add)
Then just follow the instructions and fill in the info.
At any time you can type "?" to get a list of options, "^" to go back up a level and 'q' to quit and go back to the OS prompt.

Quick tip - try to use 9 (List) in the Printer menu to search for a working printer, to compare its info.
