UNIX Printing Through TCP/IP Installing TCP/IP If Not Running lpd Installing and Printing on SCO UNIX System (continued) 6. The script automatically starts the daemon for the newly configured printer. It also displays the path used should you ever need to restart the daemon. In the preceding example, the path would be: /usr/nic/nic_print /dev/nic/printer_name printfast 10001 & This example reflects names supplied to the script earlier. When the installation script is complete, you must still configure the printer and make it known to the lp system. The SCO UNIX lp system uses the lpadmin maintenance command to configure a printer (there is no /etc/printcap file). The specific commands to do this are: lpadmin -p printer_name -v /dev/nic/printer_name NOTE: Your host may require you to specify the model by using the -i command. enable printer_name accept printer_name You can also use other options for the lpadmin command. See your system documentation for details. Note that the printer name must be the same as the one you entered during NC-2 Print Server installation. The software installed with your SCO system can satisfy most of your printing needs. SCO supplies ASCII-to-PostScript filters and the system will invoke them automatically if you define the content type of the printer as PostScript. The SCO UNIX lp system also supplies interface scripts that produce PostScript banners. Use the lpfilter command to define new filters and content types if necessary. The full power and flexibility of the lp print service is now apparent. Your printing across the network is completely transparent. UNIX Printing Through TCP/IP 5-45
