Step 2. Setting Up Print Queues
You must set up a print queue for each printer or printer personality (PCL or PostScript) you use on your system. Also, different queues are required for formatted and unformatted files. The queue names text and raw in the following examples (see rp tag) have special meanings.
Table 4.2 Supported Queue Names
raw, raw1, raw2, raw3 | no processing |
|
|
text, text1, text2, text3 | carriage return added |
|
|
auto, auto1, auto2, auto3 | automatic |
|
|
The line printer daemon on the HP JetDirect print server treats data in the text queue as unformatted text or ASCII, and adds a carriage return to each line before sending it to the printer. (Note that the actual observed behavior is that a PCL line termination command (value of 2) is issued at the beginning of the job.) The line printer daemon treats data in the raw queue as formatted files in PCL, PostScript, or
Step 3. Printing a Test File
