Oki 6120E manual Root 135 0.0 0.0 52 0 ? IW May 24 001 /usr/lib/lpd, Usr/lib/lpd

Section 4 - Appendix B - Application Considerations

If the LPD daemon is running, you should see output similar to:

root 135 0.0 0.0 52 0 ? IW May 24 0:01 /usr/lib/lpd

If the LPD daemon is not running, start the daemon by logging into the Sun-OS or Ultrix machine as root and issuing the following command at the UNIX prompt:

/usr/lib/lpd

Verify that the daemon is running by using the ps command described previously.

To start the LPD daemon automatically when the system boots, make sure that lines similar to the following exist in the “/etc/rc” file:

if [ -f /usr/lib/lpd ] ; then

rm -f /dev/printer/var/spool/lpd.lock

/usr/lib/lpd; echo -n ‘ printer’

fi

:lf=/usr/spool/lj4/lj4.log

3.At the UNIX prompt, type: mkdir /usr/spool/lj4.
