10.2.1 Setting up LPD/LPR
Install the printer on every host that prints to the printer/NIC.
1. Install the printer/NIC on the network.
2. Assign an IP address to the printer/NIC.
3. LPD and Sockets are enabled on the NIC by default.
Two items are required to conÞgure an LPD printer:
¥ Remote system name (host name for the device).
¥ Remote printer name (anything can be entered). A ÒrawÓ data
type is used by default with the expectation that proper PostScript
or raster Þles will be submitted to correspond with the mode
selected on the printer.
10.2.2 Remote or Direct Network Spooling
The printer/NIC Unix software allows a user to spool directly or remotely.
In direct spooling, each Unix workstation spools to the device
independently. In remote spooling, one U
NIX workstation sends print jobs
received from all other workstation to the printer/NIC. Both methods
require some conÞguration on all UNIX workstations.
10.3 Printer/NIC Setup using the Installation Script
The install.sh script should accommodate most BSD and System V Unix
systems for printing to the Kodak printer/NIC.
To load the Unix utilities software:
