Chapter5 Adding Printers in Unix/Linux

This chapter describes how to add network printers to Unix/Linux PC.

5.1Configuring Host File

If using IP administration system like DNS, manually registering the host name and IP address may be not required. Otherwise, you have to edit hosts file and contact your network administrator.

1.Log in to Linux machine by “root”.

#login root

2.Register FPS-3003 MFP server’s host name and IP address to /etc/hosts file.

To edit host file, use an editor, e.g. “vi”.

Example: The IP address is “192.168.1.100”, host name is “FPS-3003”

192.168.1.1 dns # DNS Server 192.168.1.2 mail # Mail Server 192.168.1.100 FPS-3003 # MFP-Server

3.Switch on the MFP server. Verify the network connection by using ping command.

#ping FPS-3003

If there is no response or error is indicated, there may be problems with IP address configuration, host file editing or network status. Please contact your network administrator.

5.2Printing by LPD/LPR

This section explains how to print using LPD protocol of TCP/IP. For further information on “lpr” and “lp” commands, refer to your workstation manual.

LPD Protocol: LPD (Line Printer Daemon) is a protocol that enables you to execute printing to a printer on the network. Remote-Printer Queue: FPS-3003 has two remote printer queues USB1_LQ and USB2_LQ with respect to USB port 1 and UB port2. To print files using a printer driver, use “lp” or “lpr”.
