❖ ❖ ❖ ❖ Making the spool directory
Create a spool directory under /var/spool/lpd. The name of the spool direc-
tory should be the name of the printer followed by "d".
Note
❒ The spool directory is used to control print job data. For example, when a
print job is created, a temporary copy of the data used is created in the
spool directory. All workstations accessing the network printer need to
have a network printer spool directory.
❒ A spool directory should be made for every network printer listed in the
/etc/printcap file.
❒ 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. Change the owner and group of the directory to "root" and "lp". The
following examples show how to make a /var/spool/lpd/npd spool di-
rectory:
# cd /var/spool/lpd
# mkdir npd
# chown root npd
# chgrp lp npd
❖ ❖ ❖ ❖ Making the log file
Error messages are logged to a file created in the /var/log directory. The log
file name is the printer name followed by "d-errs".
Note
❒ The log file is used for logging errors or warning messages by the UNIX
workstation.
❒ The log file should be made for every network printer listed in the
/etc/printcap file.
❒ The log file should normally be made under /var/log directory and the
name should match that listed under the lf capability in /etc/printcap.
Change the owner and group of the log file to "root" and "lp". The follow-
ing examples show how to make a /var/log/npd-errs file:
# cd /var/log
# touch npd-errs
# chown root npd-errs
# chgrp lp npd-errs
