11 Create the spool directory that you specified in step 10:
mkdir path_to_this_queue’s_spool_directory
12 To test the connection, type the
ping
command from a workstation on the same
subnet as the printer:
ping printer_IP_name
If the
ping command responds by telling you that the printer is alive on the
network, the address assignment was successful.
If the
ping command does not respond, or tells you the printer was not
found, then the address assignment failed. Try the steps in this procedure
again, making sure you type the printer’s Ethernet address exactly as it
appears on the startup page. If it still doesn’t work, see the troubleshooting
suggestions in Chapter 12.

lp -d queue_name filename
