If your printer does not support automatic switching between PostScript, PCL, and HP-GL/2 languages, use the printer's control panel (if the printer has one) to select the printer language or rely on the application to select the printer language via commands embedded in the print data. Make sure your users know the printer names for the printers, since they must type those names on the command line for printing. Create the spooling directory by making the following entries. At the root directory, type: mkdir /usr/spool/lpd cd /usr/spool/lpd mkdir printer_name_1 printer_name_2 chown daemon printer_name_1 printer_name_2 chgrp daemon printer_name_1 printer_name_2 chmod g+w printer_name_1 printer_name_2 where printer_name_1 and printer_name_2 refer to the printers to be spooled. You may spool several printers. The following example shows the command to create the spooling directories for printers used for text (or ASCII) printing and for PCL or PostScript printing. Example: mkdir /usr/spool/lpd cd /usr/spool/lpd mkdir lj1_text lj1_raw chown daemon lj1_text lj1_raw chgrp daemon lj1_text lj1_raw chmod g+w lj1_text lj1_raw EN Configuring for LPD Printing 63
