— Creating a Print Queue Using est4511add/estbwadd

Creating a print queue

1.Log on to the root account.

2.Enter the following command:

For e-STUDIO4511 Series

est4511add <queue name> <host name or IP address>

For e-STUDIO450 Series and e-STUDIO280 Series

estbwadd <queue name> <host name or IP address>

SUPPLEMENTS: • This command creates a print queue using the system’s lpadmin command. It also creates a configuration file that has the destination IP address or host name. Use the configuration file to change print queue parameters.

•The lpadmin command stores the printer interface file in the /etc/lp/interfaces direc- tory in a file with the same name as the print queue. The configuration file is stored in the /etc/lp/interfaces directory in a file named <queue name>.conf.

•Under Linux, the printtool (or equivalent) utility must be used to add the printer into the lp printing system after executing the est4511add or est 450add command.

— Creating a Print Queue Manually

You can also configure the print queue by adding a remote printer manually.

The procedure varies depending on the operating systems.
