Example 4: Configuring the Solaris 2.x Print Spooler for Sun SPARCstations
In order to perform the following steps you must be a superuser or belong to the
special sysadmin (GID=14) group. If you are using the NIS+ name service, you
may need NIS+ permission to modify the printer table. Refer to your Sun
documentation for details.
1 Create a directory for print spooling. All application users need read and write
permission for this directory, so you must be a superuser to perform this step. For
example, from the command line of a shell, type:
mkdir /usr/spool/cad
chmod 777 /usr/spool/cad
2 Start the Administration Tool utility (from OpenWindowst).
% /bin/admintool
3 Load the Printer Manager window, and, from the Add Printer edit menu, select Add
Local Printer
