Different ports

[Dr. Dieter Becker]

We use a HP Jetdirect 500. This tool has one IP-Adress,
but with the lpr (I use the pd tool rlpr)
uses the three different queues: auto1, auto2 and auto3.

It is very easy to install.

Most such boxes supply a separate queue for each port on the box, although
I am sure that some use separate IP addresses ...
