6.3.2 - Setting-Up and Using an LPD Printer
Set the auxiliary port as shown in Chapter 3.5.2.
To add a system printer invoke the following command (AXPRT01 is the
OS/400 printer name):
===> CRTDEVPRT DEVD(AXPRT01) DEVCLS(*VRT) TYPE(3812) MODEL(1) FONT(11)
To associate this printer with the AX3000 LPD port, you have to change its
outqueue:
===> CHGOUTQ OUTQ(AXPRT01) RMTSYS(*INTNETADR) RMTPRTQ('PARALLEL')
CNNTYPE(*IP) DESTTYPE(*OTHER) TRANSFORM(*YES) MFRTYPMDL(*NECP2)
INTNETADR('192.168.1.240')
Where:
- AXPRT01 : OS/400 outqueue name
- PARALLEL : AX3000 Printer Port Name
Uppercase letters are required
- *NECP2 : printer model (here a NEC type P2)
- 192.168.1.240 : AX3000 IP address
