Hi Lisa,

1)Log in to HP-UX as root (or an other username that controls the printers, and has all the rights to the directories).
2)Type sam on the command line and press enter.
3)Scroll to Printer and Plotters with the vertical scrollbar.
4)Click twice on Printers and Plotters.
5)Double click on LP Spooler.
6)Click twice on Printers and Plotters.
7)Select Actions on the menu bar and click on Add Remote Printer/Plotter.
8)For “Printer Name” type any name, “Remote System Name” use the DNS/Host name, or alternatively use the dotted-IP (200.200.200.11). ”Remote Printer Name” should be one of the destination ports on the Printnet (d1prn, d2prn, etc….). Also select Remote Printer is on a BSD System. Press OK and the server will install the printer.
9)Click on OK.
10)For a test print type lp –d Printername /etc/protocols.
And finally don’t forget to make this printer as the default printer if u have only this.
Right click on the printer and and say make default.
Regards,
Bapu
