Configuring a print queue for an IP printer? (HP)

» close window

The Question is:

 
I am trying to set my Alpha workstation up so that it can print.  I am
trying to print to a HP Laserjet MV type printer.  I have started the queue
manager and tried printing numerouse times but no luck.  Do I need to change
characteristics of my printer?
 Do I need to do more things with the queue?
 
 

The Answer is :

 
  The usual approach for printing to an HP LaserJet printer involves
  the DCPS package (if this particular printer is a Postscript printer)
  or the use of the TCP/IP Services for OpenVMS package (and the telnet
  or lpr/lpr schemes) if this is a non-Postscript printer.
 
  Assuming the latter approach, the necessary configuration documentation
  is available at:

  If using DCPS, please see the DCPS documentation.
