Oki 7300e - Manual (Page 118)

UNIX 117
Sun Solaris 2.x configuration
Admintool is normally used to register remote printers on Open
Windows. However, it cannot be used here, as the data recipient and
queue have the same name. The procedure below must be used for
registering a remote printer.
If Solaris 2.x is connected to the remote printer for a long period
according to the system specifications, errors and forced
disconnection may occur. Therefore, if paper tearing, off-line and
other errors result in waiting time, printing may have to be aborted.
if an incorrect IP address is entered, the network may go down or
other damage may occur. Configure after consulting the network
manager.
The following explanation uses Sun Solaris 2.8 (known as Solaris 8)
and a C7400 printer as examples. The absolute path and method of
configuring commands may differ in other versions of the OS. Refer to
the workstation manual for more details.
1. Confirm that the IP address of the printer has been set.
2. Login as [root] to the workstation. If you do not have superuser
rights, the network manager should conduct the configuration.
3. Register the IP address of the network card and the host name in
/etc/hosts file.
Example: for IP Address 192.168.20.127 and host name C7400
192.168.20.127 C7400
4. Use the ping command to confirm connection with the network
card.
Example: for host name C7400
# ping C7400
If there is no reply, there is a problem with the configuration of the IP
address (the IP address has been already set manually or DHCP/RARP
server may run), or with the network.
