System V Systems

SUN Solaris Systems

If you have problems using the install script, do the following
procedure to use lpd support from Solaris-based System V UNIX
systems. These steps are similar for other System V systems.

IMPORTANT: Before you perform any network setup procedures,

make sure that all recommended print patches have
been installed from the OS patch CD-ROM.

Using the command line method

Do as follows to use the command-line method to run the
installation script.

1.

In the /etc/hosts file, add an entry similar to the following to
correlate the IP Address of the printer to the printer’s name:

syntax:

<IP Address>

<printer name>

example:

192.185.2.3

DS8650PS

2.

Enter the following command to shut down the printer
subsystem:

/usr/lib/lpshut

3.

Add the following line to the /etc/lp/Systems file:

<host printer name>:x:-:bsd:-:n:10:-:-:

4.

Enter the following command to add a new printer:

IMPORTANT: Do not enter any returns in the following command.

/usr/lib/lpadmin -p<printer name> -s<host printername>
\!ps -I postscript

NOTE:The <Printer name> can be anything you want to call your

printer. It can be the same as <host printer name>. However,
doing this makes the corresponding printer name
associations more confusing.
