Xerox 4500 PS ETH, Inst. & Operator's Guide

7. UNIX Printing Using TCP/IP LPR/LPD

Below is information on how you print from the three following UNIX systems.

1.	AIX	Version 3.2.5
		Version 4.1
		(see Section 6.1 below for details)
2.	SunOS	Rel. 5.3, Open Windows Version 3.3 (equivalent to
		Solaris)
		(see Section.6.2 below for details)
3.	HP-UX	(TCP/IP spooler not used)
		(see Section 6.3 below for details)

Once these parameters have been configured, and the basic TCP/IP installation of the PrintServer completed, direct printing from UNIX will be possible.

7.1 AIX printing using TCP/IP LPR/LPD

Version 3.2.5

Before you can print via AIX version 3.2.5, the following 2 steps must have been completed:

1.Host Configuration

You must make sure that the Xerox 4500 PS ETH is defined as a host system. This can be done by using the smit command. Use of this command requires root authority (i.e. use the su command to switch to the root user). Alternatively, you may add the additional IP entries manually by editing the /etc/hosts file and appending the additional IP address and name for the Xerox 4500 PS ETH.

2.Define the remote printer using smit

1.Enter the smit command.

2.Use the following menu selections to supply the printer information:

-Spooler (Print Jobs)

-Manage Remote Printer Subsystem

-Client Services

-Remote Printer Queues

-Add a Remote Queue

The entries shown in the [Entry Fields] column below are sample entries for the “Add a remote queue” panel.
