Configuring Operating System V Queue for BradyConnect Printing

This section describes the configuration of the printing system on the UNIX operating system. For clarity and brevity, the following specific names are used to represent general devices or concepts.

lj4 — The local queue name on the UNIX system to which you want 10/100 Internal PS print jobs directed.

BBP81PRINTER — The host name or IP address of the remote system that is the

10/100 Internal PS device. For example, to Telnet to the 10/100 Internal PS and invoke the 10/100 Internal PS configuration utility, you would enter:

Telnet BBP81PRINTER

A host name is not required for the 10/100 Internal PS — the IP address can be used.

yourqueuename — This is the name of the queue on the BradyConnect and must end with LF1.

Before you proceed, the following prerequisites must be met:

The name BBP81PRINTER and the IP address assigned to the 10/100 Internal PS are in the /etc/hosts file on the UNIX system.
