UNIX Printing Using TCP/IP
Configuring LPD on BSD
Make sure that an IP address has been assigned to the print server and the following statements
apply:
The remote host name is the name of the print server.
The remote printer name is the logical printer (L1 to L3 or L1 to L8).
You identify the service type as BSD if your UNIX system asks for the LPD type.
The LPD protocol that the print server uses meets BSD system standards.
Enter the service type as BSD if asked for the LPD type.
Give permissions to LPD processes
chgrp daemon /usr/spool/Spooler_directory
Add remote printer(s). (Repeat this process for
each logical printer/print queue combination that
you want to create.)
Sample command should be entered as one line,
using a tab character where shown.
Add to the /etc/printcap file:
printer_name|Remote_Printer_Alias:\
[Tab] :lp=:\
[Tab] :rm=PS_NAME:\
[Tab] :rp=Logical_Printer_name:\
[Tab] :sd=Spooler_directory:\
[Tab] :mx#0
Use these definitions for entering the information:
printer_name is the print queue name used to store
jobs for the corresponding logical printer.
PS_NAME is the print server name defined in /etc/
hosts.
Logical_Printer_name is the logical printer name on
the print server (L1 to L3 or L1 to L8, depending on
the print server that you are using).
Spooler_directory is the directory you created.
