3. Use the following one-line OS/400 command to create the LPD queue:
CRTOUTQ OUTQ(<queuename> RMSTSYS (*INTNETADR)
RMTPRTO(<service>) AUTOSTRWTR(1) CNNTYPE(*IP) DESTTYPE (*OTHER)
MFRTYPMDL (<driver>) INTNETADR(‘<ipaddress>’) TEXT (‘<description>’)
where <queuename> is the new AS/400 print queue name, <service> is the
print server service name, <driver> is the OS/400 printer driver name, and
<ipaddress>
is the IP address of the print server. Note that the IP address
and description must be enclosed in single quotes.
Other systems use similar procedures to set up the print server. These
programs will generally ask for the following information:
Requested information: You should use:
remote printer print server binary
service name
remote host computer name Any name (must match name in printcap file, if
any) or in some cases, you may enter the
print server IP address here
remote host IP address print server IP address
Tech support specialists for these companies can usually answer configuration
questions if you provide them with the equivalent UNIX configuration information
(tell them that the print server looks like a remote UNIX host computer running the
lpd line printer daemon).
4. If you have not created a spool directory for the print server on your UNIX host
computer, you will need to do so now (the printer setup utilities in HP/UX, AIX,
Solaris 2.xx, and other systems will automatically create the spool directory).
The lpd spool directory is usually located in the
/ u s r / s p o o l directory (check
with your system manager to see if the location is different for your system).
To create a new spool directory, use the mkdir command. For example, to
create a spool directory for the queue monarch1, you would enter:
m k d i r / u s r / s p o o l / l p d / m o n a r c h 1
On some systems it is also necessary to start the daemon. This is done on
Berkeley-compatible UNIX systems with the lpc start command as shown in
the following example:
l p c s t a r t m o n a r c h 1
5. The final step before printing is to add the IP address to the print server.
Consult with your system administrator before assigning an IP address to avoid
conflicts with other devices. If your network does not have an officially
assigned block of IP addresses, you may use any unique address between
192.168.254.1 and 192.168.254.254 (this is a reserved range of Class C
addresses for private networks that are not connected to the Internet per RFC
1918; note that you must also assign your host computer an IP address in this
