filename
Notes:
We recommend using the /etc/hosts file for the printer name rather than NIS
or other name services.
Due to a bug in the Sun lpd implementation on Solaris 2.4 and earlier
releases, may cause problems printing very long print jobs.
The workaround
is to configure the EtherWind as an HP JetDirect card using the HP
JetAdmin for UNIX software.
Solaris print queues can also be configured from the UNIX shell using the
lpadmin command.
