3. Add an entry to the host’s /etc/printcap file, similar to the
following:
printer-name:\
:lp=:\
:rm=203.66.191.186:\
:rp=lpt1:\
:lf=/var/spool/lpd/pserverd.log:\
:sd=/var/spool/lpd/pserverd:\
:mx#0:
Lines should be indented with tabs. More than one printer
name can be used, with variants separated by vertical bars
(name1|name2).
The rm= entry should correspond to the IP address you have
assigned to the print server. You can also use a host name if
you have one assigned in the /etc/hosts file.
The sd= entry should correspond to the spool directory you
created in the previous step.
The rp= entry should correspond to the port name of the remote
printer. The values should be lpt1, lpt2, or lpt3, depending on
which printer port your printer is attached to.
The HWPS1UG should now be available for printing from your
Unix host.
