Summary: Need help print poolong to discless node Keywords: print spooling Message-ID: <427@aplcomm.JHUAPL.EDU> Date: 24 May 91 13:10:10 GMT Organization: JHU/APL, Laurel, MD Lines: 13 We have an HP 9000 series 360 acting as a files server for a couple of discless nodes. We have one printer interfaced directly to the 360 and its spooler works fine. We also have a a printer off one of the discless nodes. Users of the discless node can send (not spool) this file by using the command cat file >/dev/printer . However, we would like to have a spoolng system whereby uses could simply type lp -ddevice file and and sens the file to the printer in the server or the discless node by just specifying the appropriate device in the command? Any suggestion? Frank Monaldo fmonaldo@aplcomm.jhuapl.edu
