UNIX Printing Through TCP/IP lpd UNIX Printing Setting Up a BSD Remote Printer to Use lpd To set up a remote printer on the host that sends jobs to tha NC-2 Print Server using printer resident lpd, add an entry to the /etc/printcap file on your host for each printer you use. The procedure is described below. 1. Open the /etc/printcap file. Make an entry naming the NC-2 Print Server as the remote host and PORT1 as the remote printer name. A typical printcap entry is as follows: \ (for example, lprprinter) :lp=:\ :rm=:\ ( for example, name as entered in /etc/hosts) :rp=PORT1:\ :sd=/usr/spool/lpd/: (for example, spool directory on system used to spool data and control files) This entry will send jobs spooled at /usr/spool/lpd/ to the printer designated to be printed at port 1 (the internal connection to the printer) of the NC-2 Print Server designated as . 2. Create the spooling directory. For example, type: mkdir /usr/spool/lpd/ 3. To print via the spooler, use the lpr command. Type: lpr-P < file_name> Installation and testing are done. You are now ready to print. Setting Up an AIX Remote Printer to Use lpd Use the following procedure to set up a remote printer on the host that sends jobs to the NC-2 Print Server using the NC-2 Print Server's lpd. 1. At the prompt, type: #smit spooler 2. When a window appears, select Manage Remote Printers. 3. When a menu appears, select Client Services. 4. Another menu appears, select Remote Printer Queues. 5.

Setting Up a BSD Remote Printer to Use lpd
To set up a remote printer on the host that sends jobs to tha NC-2 Print
Server using printer resident lpd, add an entry to the /etc/printcap file on
your host for each printer you use. The procedure is described below.
1. Open the
/etc/printcap
file.
Make an entry naming the NC-2 Print Server as the remote host and PORT1
as the remote printer name. A typical printcap entry is as follows:
<printer_name>\ (for example, lprprinter)
:lp=:\
:rm=<remote_host>:\ (
for example, name as entered in /etc/hosts)
:rp=PORT1:\
:sd=/usr/spool/lpd/<printer_name>:
(for example, spool directory on system used to spool
data and control files)
This entry will send jobs spooled at /usr/spool/lpd/<printer_name> to the
printer designated <printer_name> to be printed at port 1 (the internal
connection to the printer) of the NC-2 Print Server designated as
<remote_host>.
2. Create the spooling directory. For example, type:
mkdir /usr/spool/lpd/<printer_name>
3. To print via the spooler, use the lpr command. Type:
lpr-P <printer_name>< file_name>
Installation and testing are done. You are now ready to print.
Setting Up an AIX Remote Printer to Use lpd
Use the following procedure to set up a remote printer on the host that sends
jobs to the NC-2 Print Server using the NC-2 Print Server's lpd.
1. At the prompt, type:
#smit spooler <cr>
2. When a window appears, select
Manage Remote Printers
.
3. When a menu appears, select
Client Services
.
4. Another menu appears, select
Remote Printer Queues
.
5. Another menu appears, select
Add a Remote Queue
.
