4.6.4.2. Creating the Printer Device
The print spooler requires a printer device. Due to the fact that the
print server does not need a physical device, a link is made to a
zero device.
Procedure Proceed as follows:
1. Enter the following command:
Syntax: ln -sf /dev/null /dev/<zero device name>
Example: ln -sf /dev/null /dev/my_device
4.6.4.3. Entering the Printer into the Spooler System
The AIX print spooler is administered by means of the 'mkque'
command.
