10.2 Introduction to LPD/LPR
Printing to LPD allows you to print as if the printer were directly attached
to a remote BSD Unix system. ConÞguration requires assigning an IP
address to the printer/NIC and setting up a remote BSD Unix-like printer.
Kodak provides an installation script to conÞgure the printer/NIC on Unix
and add printers.
The printer/NIC supports multiple queues by simultaneously printing via
LPD from a maximum of 12 different queues (limitation does not apply for
host software printing).
The device listens for LPD connections on 12 ports; if all 12 are in use,
the 13th LP daemon will not make a connection. If this happens, restart
the line printer daemon.
Systems that support LPD/LPR include:
