Printing form BSD Unix Versions For "flavors" of the Unix operating system derived from or related to the BSD releases, such as SunOS 4.x, Linux, BSD/OS, FreeBSD, or NetBSD, you can use the following procedure to enable users to print to a printer connected to your D-LINK network print server: 1. Log in as the superuser (root). 2. Add an entry for the print server in the host's /etc/hosts file, giving a hostname for the print server's IP address. A line in /etc/hosts contains an IP address and one or more aliases for the host . For example: 202. 39. 74. 40 ps-142634 ps-142634.dlink.com.tw If you use DNS (the Domain Naming Services protocol), you can add an address record entry to your DNS database for the print server. 3. Create a spool directory for the printer: ◊ On SunOS systems, create the directory as a subdirectory of /var/spool, with the same name as the printer (e.g., /var/spool/hp5l ). ◊ On Linux systems, create the directory as a subdirectory of /user/spool /lp. ◊ On BSD/OS, FreeBSD, or NetBSD systems, create the directory as subdirectory of /var/spool. 4. Change the owner and permissions of the directory so that it is owned and writable by group daemon, using the following commands: chown bin.daemon /var/spool/hp5l chmod 775 /var/spool/hp5l 108

Printing form BSD Unix Versions
For “flavors” of the Unix operating system derived from or related to the BSD
releases, such as SunOS 4.x, Linux, BSD/OS, FreeBSD, or NetBSD, you can use
the following procedure to enable users to print to a printer connected to your
D-LINK network print server:
1.
Log in as the superuser (root).
2.
Add an entry for the print server in the host’s
/etc/hosts
file, giving a hostname for
the print server’s IP address. A line in
/etc/hosts
contains an IP address and one
or more aliases for the host . For example:
202. 39. 74. 40
ps-142634
ps-142634.dlink.com.tw
If you use DNS (the Domain Naming Services protocol), you can add an address
record entry to your DNS database for the print server.
3.
Create a spool directory for the printer:
On SunOS systems, create the directory as a subdirectory of
/var/spool
, with
the same name as the printer (e.g.,
/var/spool/hp5l
).
On Linux systems, create the directory as a subdirectory of
/user/spool /lp
.
On BSD/OS, FreeBSD, or NetBSD systems, create the directory as
subdirectory of
/var/spool
.
4.
Change the owner and permissions of the directory so that it is owned and
writable by group daemon, using the following commands:
chown
bin.daemon /var/spool/hp5l
chmod
775 /var/spool/hp5l
