UNIX Configuration

UNIX printing utilizes a line printer daemon (lpd) to direct print jobs to the printer. The 1000E supports two modes of lpd printing, host-based lpd and printer-based lpd. With host-based lpd, the line printer daemon is run on one or more workstations (hosts) where print jobs are accepted and sent to the 1000E. With printer-based lpd, the 1000E acts as the line printer daemon host and accepts print jobs directly. Many UNIX systems allow either lpd mode to be used, although configuration may be easier for one of the modes depending upon the UNIX system. Following are some advantages and disadvantages of each mode:

Banner Page Comparison

The host-based lpd can include the user name and file name on the banner page, while the printer-based lpd can only include the host name.

Configuration Comparison

The host-based lpd requires configuration on each host that will be sending jobs to the printer, while the printer-based lpd requires only the 1000E to be configured.

1000E Configuration

TCP/IP configuration of the 1000E is needed for all versions of UNIX and is therefore covered in this guide. Lpd configuration depends upon the mode selected and the UNIX system in use. Please refer to the Instruction Handbook for lpd configuration instructions for your particular UNIX system.

Setting the IP Address

The 1000E IP address may be initially set in a variety of ways, including with the MAP utility when a NetWare server is present, with the UNIX bootp daemon, with rarp, or with the standard UNIX command line utility arp. The following instructions use arp, but the other methods may be used instead depending upon user prefer- ence. For directions on using one of the other methods, please refer to the Instruc- tion Handbook.

1.Press the Status key on the front panel of the printer with the 1000E, or, if the printer is off, turn it on and wait for the powerup network status page to print.

2.Add an entry to the hosts file (usually etc/hosts) that includes the printer’s name and the IP address. For example, to name the printer ABC7000 and associate it with an IP address of 197.42.211.5, place the following entry in the hosts file:

197.42.211.5 ABC7000

3.At the UNIX command prompt, type:
