CHAPTER 9 LAT NETWORK CONFIGURATION
9-12
6.
You now need to establish a host-initiated connection. For example:
lcp -h tty05:BRN_310107:P1
7.
Make the spool directory as shown in the following example:
cd /usr/spool
mkdir lp1
chown daemon lp1
Again substitute your actual printer name for "lp1".
8.
Print a file to verify the connection. For example, the following command
prints the printcap file:
lpr -Plp1 /etc/printcap
"lp1" in this example must be replaced by your actual printer name. You
may find that you get an error message "Socket is already connected". If this
happens, simply try printing again and the message should go away and the
job should be printed. If you get any other message, double check your
configuration.
If you have trouble printing, enter the lpstat -t command to get the status of
the print job. If the job is hung in the queue, you may have a configuration
problem: Refer to the Troubleshooting portion of this userguide for further
assistance.
