LPD on BSD

Before continuing, ensure that an IP Address has been assigned to the Print Server.
Remember the following:

The remote host name is the name of the Print Server.

The remote printer name is the logical printer (L1..L3, or L1..L8) on the Print

Server.

If asked for the LPD type, enter the service type as BSD.

In the sample commands shown,

printer_name is the Print Queue serviced by the

logical printer on the Print Server, and

Spooler_dir is the name of the directory

used to spool the print jobs.
