HP OpenVMS Systems

IP Printing? (again)

» close window

The Question is:

 
How do I configure printing over tcpip to a hp laserjet printer using a
 jetdirect interface?
 
VMS Version is 7.1-1h2 on an alphaserver
 
Trying to configure using the following :-
 
sys$manager:ucx$config.com
 
having made sure that lpr/lpd is enabled I then use
 
sys$system:ucx$lprsetup.exe
 
and the add option
 
I then add the details as requested and finally let the procedure start the
 queue.
 
when printing to the queue the prints just disapear off the queue and do not
 hit the printer.
 
error message is %UCX-F-BADHOST, Unknown host "150.41.4.85"
 
I am obviously missing something key here, any ideas what to do to get it
 working?
 
Regards,
 
Jeff
 
 
 

The Answer is :

 
  Please upgrade from V7.1-1H2.  Please upgrade from TCP/IP Services
  (probably) V4.2.  Please read topic (1020) and associated topics.
  Please also read the chapter on printing available in the TCP/IP
  Services documentation set.
