Section 4 - Chapter 3 - TCP/IP Configuration and Printing Configuring a BSD-Style Print Queue For remote BSD-Style LPD printing, add the OkiLAN 6100e+ as a remote printer in the "/etc/printcap" database to each host printing to the OkiLAN 6100e+. You can add PRINTCAP options as needed. If you are unfamiliar with PRINTCAP, consult your local documentation. The entry should be similar to the following: local_print_queue_name|[printer_model_and_ manufacturer]:\:lp=:mx#0:rm=OkiLAN 6100e_name:\:rp=remote_print_queue_name:\ :sd=path_to_spool_directory:lf=just log_file_name local_print_queue_name The local_print_queue_name defines the name of the printcap entry. It is used by the lpr/lpd utilities to specify which printcap entry is being referenced. Additional printcap entries can be added as needed for different queue types. Each entry must have a unique local_print_queue_name and a different spool directory to work properly. When you are ready to print, use the local_print_queue_name that matches the data type of the file to be printed. OkiLAN 6100e_name This is the name (alias) of the OkiLAN 6100e+. This must be the same name as entered in the /etc/hosts file or your NIS or DNS system. An IP address may also be used here. remote_print_queue_name The remote_print_queue_name entry determines the OkiLAN 6100e+ port where the print job will be printed and optionally specifies ASCII printing. path_to_spool_directory This is the path to a directory where the print jobs will be spooled for this queue. You must create a unique spool directory for each printcap entry. TCP/IP OKI OkiLAN 6100e+ User's Guide IV - 17
