LPSYSTEM Installation

Use the following procedures to install LPSYSTEM:

Note: The following must be executed from the Bourne Shell. Type: SH e to enter the Bourne Shell program.

Type: lpsystem -t bsd <IP_address_of_Printer>

Enter Printer host name in /etc/hosts file. Your system may want its IP address instead of the remote host name.

Type lpadmin -p <local printername> -s <remote host name or IP address>!PORT1

Note: There is no space after the remote host name.

Enable <local printername>

Accept <local printername>

Setting IP Parameters using Telnet

The Elite 21 printer contains a Telnet utility which uses the standard remote terminal protocol to configure the IP address, lpd/lpr printers, and other parameters for the printer. Use the following guidelines to run Telnet. You have the same functionality with the HTML pages accessed by MAP or WebAdmin, as described in Chapter 8.

Most often, you make selections from menus by toggling between one choice or another, by selecting/deselecting or enabling/disabling an item.

Press Enter when not selecting an item. This will return you to a previous menu.

If you do not make a menu selection for 2 minutes, you get a "Two Minute Warning" that within 2 more minutes your Telnet session will end. This ensures that one user does not leave a session idle for too long.

Making Connection and Main Menu

• At the prompt, type:

telnet <printer IP address>

When login: appears, type guest if you are only interested in browsing the menus or sysadm if you want to change the configuration. Press Enter.
