Addclipr

Purpose:

The addclipr command is used to add an Advanced Server client printer device to the
configured spooler.

Syntax:

addclipr

clientname printername printertype [clienttype [sharename]]

where:

clientname

specifies the network name of the client printer computer to which the
printer is attached.

printername

specifies the printer destination name to be added to the configured
Spooler.

printertype

specifies the printer as being of this type.
The

printertype

is used to extract data from the

terminfo

database.

The parameter must be an entry in the

terminfo

database.

Not all printers are available for Advanced Server for UNIX on some UNIX systems.

If you cannot use the required printer type, enter

standard

.

clienttype

is either CLIPR or PRSRV. The default is CLIPR with a client on which
clispool or clipcach is running. With PRSRV, select any system that can
make the “shared printer” resource available, for example Windows for
Workgroups, Windows 95/98, Windows NT, or a UNIX Server running
Advanced Server for UNIX.

Please note the section “PRSRV option guidelines” below.

The

sharename

has to be entered if the clienttype is PRSRV.

Comments:

The addclipr command configures the Advanced Server and the configured spooler to send
print jobs from the Advanced Server computer using the UNIX spoolin command. It does
not share the printer for network use. To enable network access to the client printer, a
shared printer queue must be created using the

net share

command.
