3. Use the following one-line OS/400 command to create the LPD queue:
CRTOUTQ OUTQ(<queuename> RMSTSYS (*INTNETADR) RMTPRTO(<service>)
AUTOSTRWTR(1) CNNTYPE(*IP) DESTTYPE (*OTHER) MFRTYPMDL (<driver>)
INTNETADR(‘<ipaddress>’) TEXT (‘<description>’)
The <queuename> is the new AS/400 print queue name, <service> is the TROY print server service name,
<driver> is the OS/400 printer driver name (*HP4 is recommended if in doubt), and <ipaddress> is the IP address
of the print server. Note that the IP address and description must be enclosed in single quotes.
Other systems use similar procedures to set up the TROY print server. These programs will generally ask for the
following information:
Requested information: You should use:
remote printer or remote TROY print server binary or text service name
remote host computer name Any name (must match name in printcap file, if any), or in some
cases, you may enter the TROY print server IP address here
remote host IP address TROY print server IP address
Tech support specialists for these companies can usually answer configuration questions if you provide them with
the equivalent UNIX configuration information (tell them that the TROY print server looks like a remote UNIX
host computer running the lpd line printer daemon).
4. If you have not created a spool directory for the TROY print server on your UNIX host computer, you will
need to do so now (the printer setup utilities in HP/UX, AIX, Solaris 2.xx, and other systems will
automatically create the spool directory). The lpd spool directory is usually located in the /usr/spool directory
(check with your system manager to see if the location is different for your system). To create a new spool
directory, use the mkdir command. For example, to create a spool directory for the queue laser1, you would
enter:
mkdir /usr/spool/lpd/laser1
