UNIX Printing Through TCP/IP lpd UNIX Printing Setting Up a SCO UNIX Remote Printer to Use lpd Use the following procedure to set up a remote printer on the host that sends jobs to a NC-2 Print Server using lpd. 1. At the prompt, type: mkdev rlp You cannot run mkdev rlp twice. If you have other printers that need to be configured, use the rlpconf command. Respond to the series of questions as follows: 2. Do you want to install or remove a remote printer? Type: I 3. Do you want to change printer description file /etc/printcap? Type: Y 4. Write a printer name. For example, type: lprprinter1 5. Is lprprinter1 a remote printer or a local printer? Type: R 6. Enter remote host name: type host name entered in printcap for the NC-2 Print Server. For example, type: Lprprinter 7. Confirm the information you have entered. Type: Y 8. Confirm the preceding connection as your system default. Type: Y or N 9. Do you want to start the remote daemon now? Type: Y 10. Enter another printer name or quit setup. Type: Q 11. Using a line editor of your choice, edit the /etc/printcap file by changing :rp= entry to :rp= PORT1. (See example below.) printer1:\ :lp=:\ (used to specify device name for a local printer; field must be empty) :rm=lprprinter:\ (remote machine name or network name of print server) :rp=PORT1:\ (remote printer name or the name of the print server) :sd=/usr/spool/lpd/printer1: (name of the spool directory on the client) 5-32 UNIX Printing Through TCP/IP

mkdev rlp
You cannot run
mkdev rlp
twice. If you have other printers that need to be
configured, use the
rlpconf
command.
Respond to the series of questions as follows:
2. Do you want to install or remove a remote printer? Type:
I
3. Do you want to change printer description file /etc/printcap? Type:
Y
4. Write a printer name. For example, type:
lprprinter1
5. Is lprprinter1 a remote printer or a local printer? Type:
R
6. Enter remote host name: type host name entered in printcap for the NC-2
Print Server. For example, type:

8. Confirm the preceding connection as your system default. Type:
Y
or
N
9. Do you want to start the remote daemon now? Type:
Y
10. Enter another printer name or quit setup. Type:
Q
11. Using a line editor of your choice, edit the
/etc/printcap
file by
changing :rp= entry to :rp=
PORT1
. (See example below.)
printer1:\
:lp=:\ (used to specify device name for a local printer; field must be empty)
:rm=lprprinter:\ (remote machine name or network name of print server)
:rp=PORT1:\ (remote printer name or the name of the print server)
:sd=/usr/spool/lpd/printer1: (name of the spool directory on the client)
