Print Server Installation Manual

SunOS
When installing the print server in SunOS systems, you must enter
the print server into the '/etc/printcap' file.
The print server is known to the network via its IP address, see:
13.
The host name has been assigned to the IP address, see:
The print server is connected and the printer is turned on.
Proceed as follows:
1. Add the following entry to the '/etc/printcap' file:
Syntax:
<printer name>:\
:lp=:rm=<host name>:rp<logical printer>:
Example:
my_printer:\
:lp=:rm=IC0001FF:rp=lp1:
With print servers with several physical printer ports, the logical printer is used to
address the port. For more information, please read the section 'Logical Printers'
in the user manual.
2. Enable the printer:
Syntax:
lpc
lpc> enable <printer name>
lpc> start <printer name>
lpc> quit
Example:
lpc
lpc> enable my_printer
lpc> start my_printer
lpc> quit
