NAME

tsm.lpadmin − add or remove a printer for use with tsm(1)

SYNOPSIS

/usr/tsm/bin/tsm.lpadmin -p I printer -m model
/usr/tsm/bin/tsm.lpadmin -x printer

DESCRIPTION

tsm.lpadmin is used to add (or remove) a printer to the LP spooling system when the printer is connected to the system through a terminal running the Terminal Session Manager (see tsm(1)). tsm.lpadmin is a shell script that uses lpadmin in the normal way but also creates a named pipe to which LP output is directed (see lpadmin(1)). This named pipe is opened by TSM and data flowing from it is sent to the printer through the terminal.  A printer configured with tsm.lpadmin can be connected to a cnode (through a terminal) even though the LP spooler runs on the cluster server. 

Options

tsm.lpadmin recognizes the following options:

-p printer Names a printer to be created with an associated pipe.  If -p is used, -m must also be specified. 

-m model Selects a model interface program for printer. model is one of the model interface names supplied with the LP software (see the Models topic in the lpadmin(1)) manual entry. If -m is used, -p must also be specified. 

-x printer Removes printer from the LP system.  No other options are allowed with -x. 

Restrictions

To use tsm.lpadmin you must be user lp or root, and you must be executing on a stand-alone system or on the cluster server if in an HP Clustered Environment.
