7155.0. "DCPS..IP printing to HP LaserJet 4M+" by KAOFS::H_GUBBELS () Thu Apr 10 1997 10:51

	I have read numerous notes regarding DCPS support for IP printing
to printers such as the HP LaserJet 4M+. Has this functionality ever been 
added to DCPS or is it still not supported ??

	If it is supported, how do you enter the information in the 
dcps$startup.com file. I believe the P2 parameter is most critical here. I 
have tried "host:port", (ie. "HP4M:9100") the queue starts but will not 
print. This syntax does work when I manually create the queue with the 
following command:

	$ init/que/start/on="HP4M:9100"/process=ucx$telnetsym srn01_taz

	This que does work, but of course I lose the adding functionality
provided by dcps such as the ability to print Landscape.

7155.1What DCPS version?8112::ANDERSONExchange *this*Thu Apr 10 1997 11:395
There is no released version of DCPS that will print to such a printer via
TCP/IP.  The next release, V1.4, will print to many desktop printers.  Check
elsewhere in this conference for pointers to V1.4 kits and documentation.
