6.2 UNIX Printing
6.The script creates a printcap entry for the printer just config- ured. The screen displays the entry and asks if you want the script to append it to your /etc/printcap file. See below for a sample printcap file.
Type yes or no and press Enter . If you type no, you may per- form manual edits.
<printer_name> NIC printer:\
:lp=/dev/<printer_name>:\
:if=/usr/nic/infilter:\
:sd=/usr/spool/<printer_name>:
7.Installation for the system is done. The program prompts you to configure any more printers. Type yes or no and press Enter . We suggest pinging the NIC to test communications.
Like all BSD systems, ULTRIX uses the /etc/printcap file to config- ure a printer. The interface to the installation script is the same for all BSD systems, however, the printcap entry is different.
If you use the printcap entry generated automatically by the installa- tion script, this will be transparent to you.
6.2.3.6 Installing and Printing on the HP/UX System

2.The script automatically downloads the correct NIC utilities for your particular system and prompts you for information as needed.
3.“What is the node name of the Print Server unit?”
Type the node name entered in /etc/hosts. For example: printfast and press Enter .
