The syntax is to be- gin each entry with a colon, followed by the entry, and then end with a co- lon, a back slash, and then a return.
  • Page 15 Using the Installation Shell Script ❒ The spool directory should normally be made under /var/spool/lpd and the name should match that listed under the sd capability in /etc/print- cap.
