sanas,

The short answer is that a single device queue exists on only a single device. Speaking more completely, the way to achieve what you are trying to do is to use the queing system to create a generic queue, to which jobs are submitted for processing, and a pair of device queues that take jobs from the generic queue and process them.

Your mention of "DNS print queue" implies that you want to use device queues that use TCP/IP communications to the printer. The exact commands for that somewhat depend upon which TCP/IP package you are using (TCP/IP Services, Multinet, TCPWare, etc) and the particular protocol(s) supported by your printer (LPD, reverse telnet). The manuals for the major TCP/IP implementations are accessible online in PDF form from their repective vendor's www sites.

I hope that the above is helpful.
