Setting up for SunOS 4.1.4 or later

In the following steps, substitute the name that your printer with
the interface card will be known by for HOSTNAME, and the
name by which you want your printer to be known for Rprinter.

1. Add the IP address and printer host name to the \etc\hosts

file.

For example:
22.33.44.55 HOSTNAME

2. Create a spool directory.

For example:
mkdir\var\spool\lpd\PRIFx

3. Add the printer entry to the \etc\printcap file.

For example:
Rprinter |
LP-1700:lp=:rm=HOSTNAME:rp=aux:sd=/var/spool/
lpd/PRIFx

Files are printed using the lpr command.

For example:
lpt -s -PRPrinter Print-File-Name

c

Caution:
Files that exceed 1MB may not be printed unless the -s option is
used.
