I am trying to install a new HP printer with JetDirect to use from
Solaris hosts. There is no longer any printer installation
software for Solaris and JetDirect. The printer is itself a LPD
server.

The problem i have is how do i configure my print queues so that
i can use options to control the printer ( tray selection,
simplex/duplex, paper format, etc ).

When i installed printers a few years back HP had printer installer
software for Solaris that allowed specifying the type of printer
on the SUN server. Then we could pass options with '-o'.

Am i missing something?
