Anybody here a SCO OSR6 Printer Guru?

[James Flanagan]

JP, 

It appears that you are heading me in the right direction

I reviewed the page that you recommended: http://wdb1.sco.com/kb/showta?taid=126336

And that led me to this, which appears to be exactly what I am looking for (assuming I have a firm grasp on this): http://wdb1.sco.com/kb/showta?taid=126532

However, when i attempt to run the command (without the -E because it will not run with it), I get the following error.

# /usr/lib/lpadmin -p xc550 -v socket://192.168.254.60:9100 -m xrx550XC.ppd
UX:lpadmin: ERROR: "socket://192.168.254.60:9100" doesn't exist.
           TO FIX: Create the file, special device, or FIFO
                   for the -v option before running this
                   command.

I have reviewed socket creation in the manual, but that does not appear to apply to this.  any idea how to create whatever SCO is looking for?  thank you very much,
