hi,

we're using custom interfaces scripts in our printer setup.
things look OK except for one printer. we need to use port2 on it (port
9101). i can't find any reference on what option is to be set in
/etc/lp/printer/<printer_name>/configuration to have the queue
use port 9101 of the printer.
i'm wondering - using lpstat, it does use the
etc/lp/printer/<printer_name>/configuration , but how to set the entry
for "Default port settings:"?
i've tried:

Default port settigns: 9101
Port: 9101
Destination port: 9101

tia.

well, the "Default port settigns:" is set by the value of Stty. and it
turns out that this is not the option i need.

we have an HP JetDirect printer that has 3 ports:

Port 1 = 9100
Port 2 = 9101
Port 3 = 9102

we need to use Port 2 (9101) instead of the default "9100" (port 1).
any ideas how to do this with systemv printing?
