TCPIP printing (Yet again!)

["Miller, Dan" <Dmiller@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I'm trying to print to an HP5 printer using TCPIP over an ethernet   
network. This printer does *not* hang off of a Novell server. It is   
standing by itself, but it does have a JetDirect card.

I have created a host entry name in the host entry table for the printer.

I have created an outq with what I think are the correct options, however   
I'm confused on the RMTPRTQ parameter. What should this be set to? I then   
use strrmtwtr on the outq. It doesn't appear to work. I think I'm still   
not creating the outq correctly.

When people post to this list on this subject, it is never clear if there   
is a unix or novell system that hosts the printer. In my case I want to   
go direct to the HP printer via the network.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Is there a FAQ for this list?
