Remote PAD Printer Support (x29printd)

The following kernel parameters should not be modified and should retain the values indicated below:

NFILE =(16 x (NPROC + 16 + MAXUSERS)/(10 + 32+(2 x NPTY))

NINODE = ((NPROC + 16 + MAXUSERS) + 32 + (2 x NPTY) + (SERVER_NODE x 18 x NUM_CODES))

For more information on dependencies, refer to your System

Administration Tasks manual.

NOTE

See the man pages for x29printd for its syntax and parameters.

 

 

Configuring Remote PAD Printers

You must configure each remote PAD printer by specifying parameters in the printer section of the /etc/x25/x29hosts file (see Appendix B, X.25 Configuration Files and Examples, for an example x29hosts file). An example printer section is shown below.

Mandatory. This is the name of the device file that

 

will be located in /dev/x29/. It is created by

 

x29printd and will be symbolically linked to a slave

 

PTY in /dev/pty/. The device file must also be

 

configured in the spooler system using lpadmin and

 

the -voption (see “Configuring the UNIX Line-printer

 

Spooler for x29printd” below).
