To print from a UNIX system, you can either configure a remote LPR printer queue or use standard printing commands. See the documentation for each remote system for the syntax of the commands.
During configuration of the remote LPR printer queue, specify the host name or IP address of the LPD server as the host name. Specify the name of the target printer queue as the queue name.
After configuring the remote LPR printer queue, specify the name of the remote queue on the used LPR or LP command.
You can use the LPR command or the LP command to submit a print request to a remote LPD server. From an AIX system, you can also use the ENQ and QPRT commands.
You can use the LPQ command or the LPSTAT command to query the names, locations, and descriptions of printers and to query the status of a print request. From an AIX system, you can also use the QSTAT command.
You can use the LPRM command or the CANCEL command to remove a job from a printer queue on a remote LPD server.
Note: The LPQ, LPSTAT, LPRM and CANCEL commands can only be used against CA Spool managed printer queues.
