Operating system configuration
This section explains how to configure a printer for major UNIX
operating systems.
Sun OS 4.x.x (BSD) configuration
The following explanation uses Sun OS 4.1.3 and an OKI printer as
examples. The absolute path of commands and the configuration
method may differ between OS versions, so refer to the
workstation manuals for more information.
If an incorrect IP Address, Subnet Mask or Gateway is entered, the
network may go down or other damage may occur.
Check the
address with the network manager and confirm that the IP address
of the printer has been set.
1.
Log in as root to the workstation.
If you do not have Superuser rights, the network manager
should conduct the configuration.
2.
Register the IP address of the network card and the host
name in the
/etc/hosts
file.
Example: for IP address 172.168.20.127 and host name
PRINTER
172.168.20.127 PRINTER
3.
Use the ping command to confirm connection with the
network card.
Example: for host name PRINTER
# ping PRINTER
If there is no reply, then there is a problem with the
configuration of the IP address (the IP address has been
already set manually or by the DHCP/RARP server) or with
