hi gurus !!!
I'm badly stuck up with the following printing problem..... Can anyone
please help me out of this ....
i wanna configure two network printers ( casper - IP address 129.146.127.11
, and cbc printer IP address 129.146.123.12 ) onto my server eprod9 - IP
address 120.146.127.89. i.e this server shd act as print server for these
printers & anyone who needs to print on these printers will be able to do so
... eprod9 being the print server.
Currently these printers are on a different old print server which has the
drivers loaded for them. Now i have to shift these printers from the old
server to this new one, but for that i don't have the drivers.
looking up from frm the docs i could somewhat manage to configure it in the
foll steps:
# lpadmin -p casper1 -v /dev/null
# lpadmin -p casper1 -i /usr/lib/lp/model/netstandard
# lpadmin -p casper1 -o dest=nimquat:9100 -o
protocol=tcp -o timeout=5
# lpadmin -p casper1 -I any -T unknown
after this when i give the print, i do get the printout, but the formatting
goes haywire. The old server is running 2.5.1 & the new one is 2.7.
Have i done the right thing? what else is required for me to do?
thanks a lot guys, in advance ....It sure feels good to have u around.
