<ol type="1">
|
|
<li>Ensure that you have satisfied the following requirements:
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>The printer must support Hewlett Packard print job language (PJL) protocol.
|
|
For a list of printers that are known to support PJL, see the<a href="http://www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=110&uid=nas1dae2e6b32726a0f386256f0300551dbd" target="_blank"> IBM® knowledge base document</a>
|
|
<img src="www.gif" alt="Link outside Information Center" /> "Support for Various ASCII Printers" (search for the document title at www.ibm.com/support/).</li>
|
|
<li>If the printer is attached to a network adapter, the network adapter must
|
|
be compatible with the printer. The network adapter must provide bidirectional
|
|
communication with the printer, and all PJL commands must pass to and from
|
|
the printer unmodified.</li>
|
|
<li>If the printer is attached to an external network adapter, the printer
|
|
must be connected with an IEEE 1284 bidirectional printer cable and the print
|
|
server must be in the BITRONICS, BI-DIRECTIONAL or ECP/MLC mode.</li></ul></li>
|
|
<li>Use the Create Device Description (Printer)<a href="../cl/crtdevprt.htm">CRTDEVPRT</a> CL command to create a printer device description. From a character-based
|
|
interface, type <tt class="xph">CRTDEVPRT</tt>.</li>

<li>On the Create Device Description (Printer) Display, press F9 to display
|

all parameters.</li>
