Multiple printers to a print queue

UNIX AIX
1

Hello

I created a print queue on my AIX 5 server. Unfortunetly, I already had a print queue with that name, so now I have 2 printers connected to one print queue.

I see the option in smit to add another printer to a queue, but I do not see how to remove one. Anyone know the secret??

Thanks
Mike

Have a look into the file /etc/qconfig, all the printer/queue information is stored there.

There is a way to manipulate this file via commands, but i have to admit that I am so much used to manipulate the file directly that i don't know any more what the commands are.
