My Unix and Linux Troubleshooting E-Book will show you how to solve tough system problems!










Sigh.  Must be the full moon...



Ever wonder about the relative merits of using an HP printer utility to
print to a non-HP print server?  It can be done, but not with the Netgear
PS110.



You have 3ea choices.
1.  You can butcher the HPNP scripts in accordance with:
        How do I configure the HP JetDirect EX Plus3 Print
        Server to use HPNP?
        http://aplawrence.com/cgi-bin/ta.pl?105327
However, instead of using ports 9100 and 9101, try using 4010 and 4020.  I
haven't bothered to actually try this so you get to learn by destroying.
See:
        http://www.cruzio.com/~jeffl/sco/lp/printservers.htm
for a shopping list of port numbers and what ports are used by HP print
servers.  




2.  Use lpr/lpd to print the PS110.  SCO lpr/lpd is rather buggy but will
work if you don't bury it in zillions of small files at once.  See:
        http://aplawrence.com/cgi-bin/ta.pl?104997
for the general idea.  The Netgear lpr queue names are buried in the
"Technical Info" PDF document on their web pile.



3.  Use Netcat.  See:
        http://www.cruzio.com/~jeffl/sco/lp/netgear.htm
for my setup instructions for a Netgear PS104.  Just add the 2nd printer
port to /etc/printers and it should work.



For obvious reasons, I prefer choice #3.

    Being tired will cost me at Poker tonight but I don't see how I can squeeze in a nap.

    Wife had a nightmare at 2:00 AM; I never got back to sleep. Gave up at 4:00 and got up.
