Unix Environment

Enable LPD on System V systems by using SAM on HP/UX, admintool on Solaris, or any other system administration tool. To install the printer/ NIC manually, use the following procedure.

1.Log in as root.

2.Create a dummy device in the /dev directory for use with the printer (e.g., ÒkodakÓ).

touch /dev/kodak

3.Change its ownership, group and access rights with these commands: chown lp /dev/kodak

chgrp lp /dev/kodak chmod 660 /dev/kodak

4.Shut down the lp scheduler.

/usr/lib/lpshut

5.Add a line in this format to the /etc/lp/systems Þle. kodak:x-:bsd:-:1:10:-:-:

where kodak is the host name of the printer/NIC.

6.Use the lpadmin command to add a new printer.

/usr/lib/lpadmin -p <printer> -s <host name>! <remote queue>

where printer is the printerÕs name, host name is the printers host name, and remote queue is a predeÞned queue.

Issue the following command when adding a PostScript printer on Solaris:

lpadmin -p<printer name> -I any

Printer name of the device may be same as the host name. Interface directory usually has these paths:

For SCO, Solaris, DG/UX, UnixWare 2.X and Interactive systems, it is

/usr/spool/lp/admins/lp/interfaces.

For HP/UX and Silicon Graphics systems, it is /usr/spool/lp/interface.

For SGI Irix system, it is /varspool/lp/interface.

For AT&T and Sequent systems, it is /usr/spool/lp/admins/lp.
