Configuring Sun-OS v4.1.x or Ultrix
v4.2 for Printing with the OkiLAN
6120e

This application note describes the configuration of the
printing system on the Sun-OS ver 4.1.x and Ultrix ver.
4.2 of the UNIX operating system. For clarity and
brevity, the following specific names will be used to
represent general devices or concepts.

lj4 - The local queue name on the Sun-OS or

Ultrix system to which print jobs that are destined
for a printer attached to the OkiLAN 6120e will
be directed.

OKIPRINTER - The host name of the remote

system which is the OkiLAN 6120e. For example,
to telnet to the OkiLAN 6120e and invoke the
OkiLAN 6120e Configuration utility, you would
type telnet OKIPRINTER. A host name is not
required for the OkiLAN 6120e, the IP Address
may be used.

yourqueuename - This is the name of the queue

on the OkiLAN 6120e and must end with 1, 2, 3
or 4, depending on the port selected to service the
print jobs.
If FF, LF or NF are the last two letters of the
queue name, the job will be converted
accordingly. See pages IV-15 and IV-16 for more
information on remote queue names.
