Page 131 highlights

13.2.3 Verify MFP Server's IP Address To verify your MFP Server is responding to the newly assigned IP address using a PING command: ping ip-address 13.2.4 Configure Remote LPD Printing on the Host The procedure you use to configure your Unix/Linux host(s) to allow printing to your network remote MFP Server varies between different varieties of Unix/Linux. The procedure below can be used for Unix/Linux variants that are related to BSD Unix, such as SunOS or Linux. For other versions of Unix/Linux, consult your system documentation, keeping in mind that: 1. The MFP Server should be treated as a BSD networked MFP Server host. 2. The host name should be the name (or IP address) that you have assigned to the MFP Server. 3. The printer name (or queue name) on the remote host should be lpt1, lpt2 or lpt3, the name of the printer port on the MFP Server. You will need to perform the tasks below, logged in as the superuser (root). To configure your Unix/Linux host for printing, 1. Optionally, assign a name corresponding to the MFP Server's IP address. You can add this address to the /etc/hosts file, by adding a line such as: 203.66.191.186 pserver 126

13.2.3 Verify MFP Server’s IP Address
To verify your MFP Server is responding to the newly assigned IP
address using a PING command:
ping ip-address
13.2.4 Configure Remote LPD Printing on the Host
The procedure you use to configure your Unix/Linux host(s) to
allow printing to your network remote MFP Server varies between
different varieties of Unix/Linux. The procedure below can be used
for Unix/Linux variants that are related to BSD Unix, such as
SunOS or Linux. For other versions of Unix/Linux, consult your
system documentation, keeping in mind that:
1. The MFP Server should be treated as a BSD networked MFP
Server host.
2. The host name should be the name (or IP address) that you
have assigned to the MFP Server.
3. The printer name (or queue name) on the remote host should
be lpt1, lpt2 or lpt3, the name of the printer port on the MFP
Server.
You will need to perform the tasks below, logged in as the
superuser (root).
To configure your Unix/Linux host for printing,
1. Optionally, assign a name corresponding to the MFP Server
s
IP address.
You can add this address to the /etc/hosts file, by
adding a line such as:
203.66.191.186
