JetDirect queue does not work after 3.2.5 -> 4.1.4 migration

Response:

 ENV:
        AIX 4.1.4
        Model 3ct
        *CUSTOMER REP:
        Bill Bail

 PROBLEM:
        After upgrading from AIX 3.2.5 to 4.1.4, none of our HP
        JetDirect printers are working.

*ACTION TAKEN:
        lslpp -l printers.hpJetDirect.attach shows that the Jet
        Direct software isn't installed.

        To get the existing JetDirect queues to work without
        having to remove/recreate them you will need to do:

        1) Install printers.hpJetDirect.attach
        2) vi /etc/qconfig
           For each jetdirect queue change the line:
           file = /var/spool/lpd/pio/dev/hp@hostname
           to:
           file = /var/spool/lpd/pio/@local/dev/hp@hostname
           
           and then in the ...../@local/dev/ directory, if the file
           does not exist create the file hp@hostname with 666 permissions.
