ETHERNET PRINT SERVERS HIGH SPEED AND 4-PORT
• Shut down the qdaemon using the command "stopsrc -s qdaemon" and
edit /usr/lpd/config to change the special file for device printer_name
from /dev/printer_name to /dev/dpi/printer_name. Restart the
daemon with "startscr -s daemon."
The installation script then will create the named pipe and Ethernet Print
Server information you supplied.
Since the AIX System Management Interface Tool (SMIT) will not accept
a named pipe as a printer device, the installation script also creates a null-
character device in /dev/printer_name.
Virtual Printer Commands
Virtual printers can be added either through SMIT or through the mkvirprt
command, entering the device name printer_name for configuration
purposes. During this process, you also select a particular printer type for
the new printer, which inherits the set of predefined attributes for that
printer type. In most cases, this set of attributes will be sufficient, but it can
be changed either through SMIT or by using the chvirpt command. If you
need more extensive changes on your printer, see the AIX RISC System/6000
documentation for assistance.
After the virtual printer has been added, there will be a stanza in
/usr/lpd/qconfig for device printer_name that looks like:
printer_name
file=/dev/printer_name
backend=/usr/lpd/piobe
Edit /usr/qconfig and change "file=/dev/printer_name" to
"file=/dev/dpi/printer_name." Output spooled on the virtual printer
defined above will now be sent to the named pipe and routed to the Ethernet
Print Server.
Part C: nsconfig—TCP/IP Configuration Utility
This section describes loading and using nsconfig, a program to change
parameters such as IP and gateway addresses. If you run NetWare, we
recommend changing parameters using NIMANAGE. If you do not run
NetWare or prefer using nsconfig, take the following steps. If you have
already loaded TCP/IP (via tcpinst), skip steps 1-4.
1. Load the Ethernet Print Server diskette in a host drive.
2. Create and go to the directory in which you want to install nsconfig.
