Configuring Hewlett-Packard network printers and print services

System Administration Guide
Chapter 4, Managing printers and print jobs

Hewlett-Packard network printers attach directly to a network using the built-in network card.

To configure a Hewlett-Packard network printer, use the HP Network Printer Manager located in the Printers directory of the SCOadmin hierarchy. To configure the print services for an HP network printer, use the HP Network Print Services Manager (in the same location).

There are three steps to configuring and managing HP network printers:

Set up a BOOTP server, the host which performs the actual configuration of the HP network printer using the HP Network Print Services Manager.
Configure the HP print services on each host that will access the printer using the HP Network Print Services Manager.
Perform any further changes or additions with the HP Network Printer Manager.

See the hpnpcfg(ADM) manual page for more information.

NOTE: The HP Network Print Services Manager is used to initially install and configure the necessary files. The HP Network Printer Manager is used thereafter to configure printers and the print service. (The HP Network Print Services Manager actually invokes the HP Network Printer Manager for certain tasks, which is intentional.)
