When using sam , specify everything as if the printer were directly
connected to /dev/lprprinter/<printer_name>.
The software installed with your HP system can satisfy most of your
printing needs. HP supplies ASCII-to-PostScript filters and the system
will invoke them automatically if you define the content type of the
printer as PostScript. The HP/UX lp system also supplies interface
scripts that produce PostScript banners. Use the
lpfilter command to
define new filters and content types if necessary. The full power and
flexibility of the lp print service is now available to you. The fact that
you are printing across the network is completely transparent.
6.2.3.7 Installing and Printing on a System V (Solaris
2.X)/System V Rel.4 386-based Machine
Installation and setup is exactly the same for System V Solaris and
SVR4 i386-based machines. Solution uses a network direct filter
called
nicfilter . The system invokes nicfilter directly from the printer
interface file. To load the software, create a /usr/nic directory and tar
the CD-ROM to it.
1.
Go to the /usr/nic directory by entering the following:
#cd /usr/nic
2. Run the Installation script by typing:
#nicinst
Once the operating system has been identified, the script downloads
the files for your particular system, to the /usr/nic directory, and
prompts you for information as needed.
3. At the prompt, type:
#cp /usr/spool/lp/model/standard /usr/nic/
