3 What is the printer name?
Type the printer name and press .
4 Here, the script displays the information you have input up to this point.
Node name of the Print Server Card: printfast
Printer name to be used: <printer name>
The printer is attached on: PORT 1
Check these settings and make sure they are correct. If they are cor-
rect, type
yes and press . Otherwise, type no and press .
5 Is this printer PostScript?
Type yes and press if the printer is a PostScript printer. Other-
wise type no and press .
6 The printcap entries you have made up to this point appear on the dis-
play and the script confirms whether you want the entries written into
the
/etc/printcap file. Type yes if you want the entries added to print-
cap and then press . If you do not want them added, type no ,
press and then manually make the required changes to the en-
tries.
Do not change the device name in the
/etc/printcap file, which was
given to the Network Card in step 3. The lp command line must refer-
ence the
:lp entry recorded in the printcap file. The following shows an
example entry.
<printer name> | Print Server Card printer:\
:lp=/dev/<printer name>:\
:if=/usr/nic/infilter:\
:sd=/usr/spool/<printer name>:
* All printcap entries start with a tab except for the first.
7 The script creates a spool directory in /usr/spool and starts a daemon
for the newly configured printer. At this time, the script displays the
path you should use if you ever need to restart the daemon.
Example:
/usr/nic/lpr_print /dev/nic/<printer name> print-
fast 10001 &
8 Run the ps command to view all your lpd/lpr processes.
