Tektronix Phasershare Printer manual Using the PhaserShare Administrator to configure Token Ring

2 PhaserShare Series B Network Interfaces

6.Make an entry into the host’s ARP (Address Resolution Protocol) table defining the printer’s Printer Name/Token Ring address pair. In general, this requires a command corresponding to one of the following syntax examples:

arp	-s	printer-name Token-Ring-address (for BSD systems)
		or
arp	-s	ether printer-nam e Token-Ring-address (for System V)

See the documentation for your host system for specifics of this command.

7.Turn on the printer.

8.Use the host spooling system (for example, lpr or lp) to send the file you created in Step 3b to the printer; this stores the Token Ring information in the printer’s internal memory, where it is retained over a reset or power cycle.

9.You must reset the printer before the changes take effect. For more information, see Chapter 16, “Resetting the Printer”.
