The Answer is :

 
  Please contact the Compaq Customer Support Center.
 
  As you are running OpenVMS V7.1, please consider an upgrade to
  TCP/IP Services V5.0A.
 
  Also consider an upgrade to OpenVMS Alpha V7.1-2.
 
  The usual approach for configuring queues is via the provided
  UCX$LPRSETUP/TCPIP$LPRSETUP tool.
 
  Also see the following documentation:
 
http://www.openvms.compaq.com:8000/72final/6526/6526profile_028.html#lpd_chap
 
  as well as the discussions in topic 1020 here in Ask The Wizard.
 
  The OpenVMS Wizard might expect:
 
    sd=/SYS$SPECIFIC/UCX_LPD/PHPRT5/
 
  Please then contact the Compaq Customer Support Center, as information
  on your current configuration and logs, as well as information on
  the particular printer configuration, as well as any error messages
  you might see, will be required.
