ConÞguring your host
1.
Add the printerÕs name to the host table and assign an IP address
to the printerÕs name. Depending on your host system, you may
use NIS (Name Information Server, formerly yellow pages) or, on
a system without NIS, you may have to edit a Þle (for example,
/etc/hosts).
2.
Assign a print queue to the printer:
■ For BSD systems, edit the /etc/printcap Þle and add a spool directory
(for example, to /usr/spool/lpr).
■ For System V hosts, conÞgure the queue as a remote BSD print
queue (support for TPC/IP lpr is required).
Note
Some UNIX hosts report an error when you conÞgure a print
queue that is not currently on the network. Ignore this message.
If you need host-specific instructions, see Appendix A for information on
how to get them from the Tektronix Information Server (via Internet) or
HAL, the Tektronix automated fax system.
