Hello VMers.

We are new to both z/VM and Linux so are struggling newbies.

We managed to set up a CUPS printer (HP) on a Linux guest and are able to
print to it (from within Linux).  We would like to be able to print z/VM
files to this printer using RSCS.

To our knowledge, we configured an lprp link and an lpd link (RSCS).  We
used YaST to 'allow' from the z/VM IP addr on EOSprinter

lpr command (on z/VM) and results:

lpr test test a (asyn PRINTER EOSprinter HOST linuxipaddr
RDR FILE 0025 SENT FROM TCPMAINT PRT WAS 0025 RECS 0003 CPY  001 A NOHOLD
NOKEEP

nothing prints.

lpq command (on z/VM) and results:

lpq (All PRINTER EOSprinter HOST linuxipaddr
Connection to linuxipaddr failed (Foreign host rejected the open attempt)



lpq command (on Linux) and results:

lpq EOSprinter
EOSprinter is ready
no entries

We're mssing something...but don't know enough to even ask the right
questions.

TIA for any and all help.

Susan
