Configuring System V for ZebraNet Printing

This section describes the configuration of the printing system on the UNIX operating system. For clarity and brevity, the following specific names are used to represent general devices or concepts.

lj4—The local queue name on the UNIX system that PSII print jobs are directed to.

ZEBRAPRINTER—The host name of the remote system that is the PSII device. For example, to Telnet to the PSII and invoke the PSII configuration utility, you would enter:

Telnet ZEBRAPRINTER

A host name is not required for the PSII – the IP address can be used.

yourqueuename—This is the name of the queue on the ZebraNet and must end with 1, 2, 3, or 4, depending on the port selected to service the print jobs. If FF, LF or NF are the last two letters of the queue name, the job is converted accordingly.

Prerequisites

Before you proceed, the following prerequisites must be met:

•The name ZEBRAPRINTER and the IP address assigned to the PSII are in the /etc/ hosts file on the UNIX system.

•The LPD must be running on the UNIX system.

UNIX Configuration

To configure the UNIX machine so users can spool print jobs to the PCL print queue on the ZebraNet named ZEBRAPRINTER, complete these steps:

1.Login to the UNIX machine as root.

2.Type lpsystem -t bsd ZEBRAPRINTER.
