solaris 10 : problems while setting up network printer



Hi,

I am not a unix admin, but need to setup a network printer on solaris
10.
I tried a few commands after reading the "red book", some manual pages
and some pages on the internet. I got an error while trying to print. I
am giving some info below.

Thanks for your kind help in advance.

UX:lp: ERROR: There is no filter to convert the file content.
TO FIX: Use the lpstat -p -l command to find a
printer that can handle the file type
directly, check your filters using lpfilter -f all -l, or
consult with your system
administrator.
