Adding a printer on Linux
For iHub to recognize a printer in Solaris, Linux, HP, and IBM environments, the printer name must appear in the following locations:
*Linux—a subdirectory of the /etc/lp/printers directory.
*HP—the /etc/lp/member directory.
*IBM—the /etc/qconfig file.
How to add a printer on Linux
You add a printer to the server in Configuration Console—Advanced view, using Printers—Add Printer, shown in Figure 13‑3. Specify the following information:
*The printer path.
*Name of the PostScript printer definition (PPD) file. Do not include the path.
*The name of the spool command.
Restart iHub after adding printers.
