Setting Up ATPS to Print
Articles and Tips: tip
01 Jun 2001
If you want to set up ATPS so that you can print to a non-AppleTalk printer from the Macs, perform the following steps:
Set up the printing on the PC side and verify that you can print to the printer from a PC workstation.
Enter the following line in ATPS.CFG using the above queue name:
-o "queue name" -wb -l -f hplaser
Use the -l parameter if you need to use the laser prep file that is needed for laser printers. The -f parameter specifies the font file. The hplaser font file is the most common, but your other options are in the nw-mac\fonts directory.
The spooler will show up in the Mac Chooser with the same name as the queue. If you want those names to be different, use:
-o "spooler name" -q "queue name" -wb -l -f hplaser
