Designating a printer on SCO 5.0.5

[Guy Templin]

One thing I have found is that you have to put an entry in the /etc/hosts
file with the IP address and name. I believe that I than set it up through
HP printer services.

If it is an HP network capable printer or can act as one, you need to  
use the HP Network Printer Manager in the Printer folder.  Otherwise,  
I believe you will need SCO drivers for the printer supplied by the  
manufacturer.
