No, it's not cli - it's in the printer setup. Even if the printer is not
showing up (can even be on a different subject if you use the ip
address). Select New|Printer|Network Printer|Internet Printing Protocol
(ipp)|
 Host: enter the ip address of the target
 Queue: /printers/<enter printername here>
 Verify (to verify that it's connecting & found the printer
 - Forward (to set up the rest)
