Where:

Printer_name is the Print Queue name used to store jobs for the corresponding logical printer.

PS_NAME is the Wireless Print Server name defined in /etc/hosts.

Logical_Printer_name is the logical printer name on the Wireless Print Server. (e.g. L1) Spooler_directory is the directory you created in Step 6.

Example:

MarketingRP1_PS123456:\ [TAB] :lp=:\

[TAB] :rm=PS_Rm203:\

[TAB] :rp=L1:\

[TAB] :sd=/usr/spool/Marketing:\

[TAB] :mx#0:

Repeat this process for each Logical Printer/Print Queue combination that you wish to create.

LPD on Linux

If using the command line, the procedure is the same as for System V. (above)

On recent Linux distributions, you can use the graphical X-windows interface instead of the command line. The procedure is described below, but may vary according to your version of Linux.

1.Start your X-windows shell.

2.Select Control Panel, then Printer Configuration.

3.Select Add. For the printer type, select Remote Unix (lpd) Queue.

4.Use the following data to complete the resulting dialog.

By default, L1 is port 1, and L2 is port 2 if the Print
