TCP/IP Network Configuration 4-9

lpsystem -t bsd

xcdname

lpadmin -p

queue -s xcdname!\xcdservice

accept

queue

enable

queue

where

queue

is the name of the local print queue,

xcdname

is the TROY XCD print server name (must

match the entry in the /etc/hosts file) or IP address and

xcdservice

is the TROY XCD print server binary or

text service. If this is the first printer configured, you
must also use the

lpsched

command immediately prior

to the

accept

command.

As an alternative, you may use Printer Manager in the
admintool utility under OpenWindows. Select Edit,
Add, and Add Access to Remote Printer. Then enter
the TROY XCD print server name in the format

xcdname!\xcdservice

as described above. Make sure

that the Printer Server OS is set to BSD (the default
setting), and then click Add.

Note that we recommend that use the

/etc/hosts

file

for the printer name rather than NIS or other name
services. Also note that due to a bug in the Sun lpd
implementation on Solaris 2.4 and earlier releases, you
may experience problems printing very long print jobs.
If this is the case, a workaround is to use the raw TCP
port with the HP JetDirect software as described later in
this chapter.

SCO UNIX Configuration

SCO UNIX requires TCP/IP V1.2 or later to work with
TROY XCD print servers. You must first configure the

/etc/hosts

and

/etc/printcap

files as described in

step 2. Then run the sysadmsh program as follows:
