SETUP 1 Setting Up the Printer Extra Tips for UNIX Users Example 2: Configuring the SunOS 4.1.3 print spooler for Sun SPARCstations (serial interface) In order to perform the following steps you must be superuser. 1 Create a directory for print spooling. All application users need read and write permissions for this directory. For example, from the command line of a shell, type: mkdir /usr/spool/cad chmod 777 /usr/spool/cad 2 Edit the /etc/printcap file to set up the printer configuration. You must assign a name to each printer managed by the print spooler. Refer to the example below if you need help completing this step. 3 Add the following lines to your /etc/printcap file. The example assumes: your printer is named djet, and your printer is connected to the device named /dev/ttya -pnpClls oUI Salno nIlaCl phlo he oUI rhlknoCoahe1, and the spooling directory you created in step 1 is called /usr/spool/cad. # Entry for an HP printer on a serial port djet:\ :lp=/dev/ttya:sd=/usr/spool/cad:br#9600:\ :lf=/usr/adm/lpd-errs:\ :sf:sh:mx#0:xc#0177777:xs#040040:fc#050:\ :ms=-evenp: 4 Make sure the printer's baud rate is 9600 and parity is even.
