LPR on SCO UNIX Hosts

LPR is supported in SCO V3.2 release 4 with TCP/IP Version 1.2 and greater.

To configure a print queue using LPR, issue the mkdev rlp command. This will install
the Berkeley remote printing files and executable programs.

Note:

The mkdev rlp command should only be issued once, or serious

problems will occur. If this happens, contact SCO technical support.

You can print to this queue using normal lp syntax once the remote printer is set up.
To create a remote printer:

1. Issue

the

rlpconf command.
