Sun Solaris 2.x uses the lpsystem and lpadmin programs for remote printer
configuration:

lpsystem -t bsd xcdname
lpadmin -p queue -s xcdname!\xcdservice
accept queue
enable queue
where

q u e u e

is the name of the local print queue,

x c d n a m e

is the print server name

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

x c d s e r v i c e

is the

print server binary service. If this is the first printer configured, you must also use
the

l p s c h e d

command immediately prior to the

a c c e p t

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 print server name in the format

x c d n a m e ! \ x c d s e r v i c e

as described above.

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