Printing from UNIX:
Configuring the Operating
System
This section explains how to configure a printer for major UNIX
operating systems.
Sun OS 4.x.x (BSD) Configuration
Check the IP Address, Subnet Mask and
Gateway
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.
Example 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.
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
