Creating a Spool Directory
If you have not already created a spool directory, you need to do
so now. If you are using HP/UX, AIX, Solaris 2.xx, and some
other systems, a spool directory has already been created. The
lpd spool directory is located in the /usr/spool directory. Check
with your system manager to see if the location is different for
your system.
Use the mkdir command to create a spool directory. For example,
to create a spool directory for the queue kodak1, you would enter:
mkdir /usr/spool/lpd/kodak1
NOTE: It is also necessary to start the daemon on some systems.
Use the lpc start command on the Berkeley-compatible
Unix systems. For example:
lpc start kodak1Adding an IP Address
