With HPDPS, you can continue to submit your usual HP-UX Line
Printer Spooler (LP spooler) commands. HPDPS translates these commands
as needed and provides, as closely as possible, the same functionality.
However, there are small differences between the ways that LP spooler-managed
printers and HPDPS-managed printers handle some commands. You may
also see differences in the information returned from a query command.
For more detailed information, see Appendix B “LP Spooler Commands Translated
to HPDPS Commands ”.
All printers configured with HPDPS on a local system are visible
immediately to the LP spooler without any additional configuration.
Remotely located HPDPS printers will also be visible to the LP spooler
if running in the DCE Extended Environment.
