| Remote PAD Printer Support (x29printd) |
x3 | Optional. This is the X.3 configuration set name for |
| this x29server login session. If used, the configuration |
| set name (and X.3 parameter set) must also exist in |
/etc/x25/x3config. If more than one X.3 configuration set with the same name exists, the first one found in the file is used.
If there is no configuration set name in /etc/x25/x29hosts or no matching X.3 configuration set name in /etc/x25/x3config, default values are used.
Configuring the UNIX Line-printer Spooler for x29printd
The remote PAD printer must also be configured in the spooler system in order for remote printing to work with the standard UNIX LP commands. To configure a remote PAD printer in the spooler system, execute the following command:
lpadmin
Printer name is the name given to this printer at the | |
| user level. This is the same name specified with the lp |
| command’s |
| printer). |
Device file name is /dev/x29/[device name]. The | |
| value for device name is the same character string as |
| the one entered in the device entry in the |
| /etc/x25/x29hosts file. |
Printer model is the HP printer model name (for | |
| example, thinkjet, laserjet, hp2563a, etc.). |
| The lpadmin command associates the printer name |
| with the device file name in /etc/x25/x29hosts and |
| maps this name to the remote X.121 address of the |
| printer. |
