In the following steps, substitute the name that the device will be
known by for HOSTNAME, and the name by which you want the
device to be known for Rprinter.
1. Add the IP address and printer host name to the \etc\hosts
file.
For example:
22.33.44.55 HOSTNAME
2. Create a spool directory.
For example:
mkdir\var\spool\lpd\PRIFx

For example:
Rprinter |
ALCXXXX:lp=:rm=HOSTNAME:rp=aux:sd=/var/spool/lpd

4. To print, use the lpr command.
For example:
lpt -s -PRPrinter Print-File-Name
