TCP/IP Configuration
4 - 22
During initial configuration, the queue name must be the same as the remote printer name.
However, you may change the queue name later by manually editing the printcap file.
4.5 RTEL Functionality
If the LPR method of printing is not adequate for an application (for example, if you need banners
before jobs, or more flexibility), configure the Lantronix-supplied RTEL software on the host.
After installing the software configuring the connections to the EPS, you can use normal UNIX
print commands and queue utilities such as lpc and lpstat.
NOTE: RTEL binaries are provided for many systems. Source code is also
provided for use on non-supported systems.
To print to the EPS using special formatting or using third-party software packages, you may
have to create print pipes on the host. The RTEL software provides this functionality by
providing a UNIX named-pipe interface.
To recreate the RTEL source files:
1. Copy the file RTEL_SRC.TAR from the distribution CD-ROM to the UNIX host. Ensure
that a binary copy is performed.
2. Untar the archive.
