Alternatively, add the device host name to the /etc/hosts file
using either the
admintool
AIX, or the
sam
command for Linux.

Unix Queue Setup

Creating a Print Queue
1 Log on to the root account.
2 Enter the following command:
ipc1im8130add <queue name> <host name or IP
address>
This command creates a print queue using the system's
command. It also creates a configuration file that
lpadmin
has the destination IP address or host name. Use the
configuration file to change print queue parameters.
The command stores the printer interface file in the
lpadmin
/etc/lp/interfaces
name as the print queue. The configuration file is usually
stored in the
/etc/lp/interfaces
named
<queue name>.conf
command for Solaris or IBM
command for HP-UX or the
directory in a file with the same
