1 - 4 UNIX PRINTING

Choose one of the available services (a service name will be
used in step 3):

BINARY_P1 Binary data
TEXT_P1

Text data (CR added)

You may set up multiple print queues on your UNIX host
computer for the same print server, each one with a different
service name (for example, one queue for binary graphics jobs
and one for text jobs).

3

Configure the

/etc/printcap

file on each host computer to

specify the local print queue, the print server name (also called
remote machine or rm), and the print server service name (also
called remote printer, remote queue, or rp), and the spool
directory.

An example of a typical printcap file:

laser1|Printer on Floor 1:\
:lp=:\
:rm=BRN_310107:\
:rp=TEXT_P1:\
:sd=/usr/spool/lpd/laser1:

This step applies to the majority of UNIX systems, including
Linux, Sun OS (but not Solaris 2.xx), Silicon Graphics (lpr/lpd
option required), DEC ULTRIX, DEC OSF/1, and Digital
UNIX. SCO UNIX users should follow these steps, but should
also refer to the SCO UNIX Configuration section. Users of
RS/6000 AIX, HP/UX, Sun Solaris 2.xx, and other systems
that do not use the printcap file should skip to section 3-a.
SCO user's should also skip to section 3a (SCO uses the
printcap file, but this file is automatically configured via the

rlpconf

command).
