Registering the printer
The installation shell script registers the printer as a remote printer following the procedure below:
1. If your workstation is Solaris 2.5.1, register the print server and print client to the print service.
# lpsystem -t bsd -R 0 -y Network Printer nphost
2. Register the printer as a remote printer.
# lpadmin -p np -s nphost!option -T dump -I any
• np is the printer name, nphost is the host name. For details about "option", see "Specifying
the Device Option".
"lp" will be assigned, if the option is not used.
When printing with the lp command, use ( _ ) instead of ( = ) and ( ; ) instead of ( , ) for
operating systems that cannot use ( = ) and ( , ) such as Solaris 2.5 or later.
3. If your workstation is Solaris 2.5.1, set the print job to active so it can be accepted by the print
queue.
/usr/lib/accept np
