2.Choose which TROY print server service you want to use. There are two types of services available on the TROY PocketPro 100S. Binary services pass data through unmodified and are therefore required for PCL or PostScript rasterized graphics printouts. Text services add a carriage return at the end of each line for proper formatting of UNIX text files (which end in linefeed and do not have carriage returns). The text service can also be used for
If you are using the parallel port on the print server, choose one of the available services (this service name will be used in step 3):
BINARY_P1 Binary (parallel port)
TEXT_P1 Text (parallel port)
You may set up multiple print queues on your UNIX host computer for the same TROY print server, each with a different service name (for example, one queue for binary graphics jobs and one for text jobs). Refer to Appendix B for additional information on using services.
NOTE: The following step applies to the majority of UNIX systems, including Sun OS (but not Solaris 2.xx), Silicon Graphics (lpr/lpd option required), DEC ULTRIX, DEC OSF/1, and Digital UNIX. Users of RS/6000 AIX, HP/UX, Sun Solaris 2.xx, and other systems that do not use the printcap file should skip to Step #4. SCO users should also skip to section
3.Configure the /etc/printcap file on each host computer to specify the local print queue, the TROY print server name (also called remote machine or rm), and the TROY print server service name (also called remote printer, remote queue, or rp), and the spool directory. An example of a typical printcap file is as follows:
laser1Printer on Floor 1:\ :lp=:\ :rm=TWC_003C51:\ :rp=TEXT_P1:\ :sd=/usr/spool/lpd/laser1:
