Shekhar,
A bunch of questions...
Do any of your HP printer queues work on the two production machines.
Have you checked that you have the appropriate HP drivers installed on the
two machines?
Do the two production machines have similar versions of AIX and HP drivers
as the machines that do work?
Cheers,
Bruce Whittaker,

Subject: Printer Works from one system but not another AIX system ??
Hi All,
This is really weird problem. I have configured remote printer on 7 AIX
servers. This printer works on 5 systems but does not on two production
systems where I want this to work. I can ping and telnet to printer port
from all the systems so that drops network issues - No network issues.
Printer Working on this system: BACSBOX is the Queue name.
