6.1 Introduction

The HWPS1UG can use TCP/IP printing through the Unix lpd
(Line Printer Daemon) protocol. The lpd protocol is based on

the BSD version of Unix and is supported under most versions

of Unix.

This chapter explains how to configure the print server for
TCP/IP operation, and how to modify configuration files on

your Unix system to allow printing to the print server. The

configuration examples in this manual follow the syntax for

BSD based Unix systems. Please refer to the related system
documentation for the correct syntax of your system.

To configure the print server for lpd printing, perform the

following procedures below:

1. Enable the HWPS1UG ’s TCP/IP Support.

2. Set the HWPS1UG ’s IP address.

3. Verify the HWPS1UG ’s IP Address.

4. Configure remote lpd printing on the host.

5. Print a test page.

In the next section, we will describe these five procedures in

depth.
