You can indicate to the network interface card lpd what type of print control-
ler it is attached to by either:
x Accepting the default port setting (PCL, PostScript and other), or
x Changing the listed emulations via a standard IP based Web Browser.
The sections that follow give specific lpd setup instructions for various sys-
tems.
Setting Up a BSD Remote Printer to Use lpd
To set up a remote printer on the host that sends jobs to the network inter-
face card using printer resident lpd, add an entry to the /etc/printcap file on
your host for each printer you use. Perform the following procedure:
1
Open the /etc/printcap file.
- Make an entry naming the network interface card as the remote
host and PORT1 as the remote printer name. A typical printcap en-
try is as follows:
<printer_name>\ (for example, lprprinter)
:lp=:\
:rm=<remote_host>:\ (for example, name as entered in /etc/hosts)
:rp=PORT1:\
:sd=/usr/spool/lpd/<printer_name>:
(for example, spool directory on system used to spool
data and control files)
This entry will send jobs spooled at /usr/spool/lpd/<printer_name> to the
printer designated <printer_name> to be printed at PORT 1 (the internal con-
nection to the printer) of the network interface card designated as
<remote_host>.
2
Create the spooling directory. For example, type:
mkdir /usr/spool/lpd/<printer_name>
3
To print via the spooler, use the lpr command. Type:
lpr-P <printer_name> < file_name>
Installation and testing are done. You are now ready to print.
