Step 2.

If these printers are not attached to the VolServ host

 

 

machine serial ports A and/or B or if they are

 

 

attached to parallel ports or a remote machine, the

 

 

system administrator must set up the

 

 

/etc/printcap file to define the printers.

 

Step 3.

To simplify the printcap file modification, use the

 

 

names of the label printers as defined in the

 

 

label_printers.config file. Otherwise,

 

 

different names used in the printcap file must also

 

 

be defined in the label_printers.config file.

 

Step 4.

Cycle VolServ to pick up the changes.

 

 

 

 

 

# volserv -t

 

 

 

 

 

 

# volserv

 

 

Step 5.

 

 

 

Cycle vswin (if open) to pick up the changes.

Configure Printers

Solaris only: The system administrator must use the Solaris

on Solaris

admintool utility to configure the label printers.

This procedure is written for an Intermec barcode label printer attached to a Solaris server. A similar procedure can be applied to the installation of the Seiko shelf label printer.
