  • Subject: RE: Sending Spool files using TCP/IP to a network printer
  • From: James Turnbull <jamest@xxxxxxxxxx>

Below is a description of an outq for a HP5SI that I setup as a IP
printer.  All you need in addition is to put an entry in your host table
for the outq name (Remote System) and to configure your printer.  From
the sound of your error message something is amiss at the printer end.
Check its network setup, IP address & subnet mask, etc.  Hope this
helps.
