TCP/IP Network Configuration 4-9
lpsystem -t bsd

xcdname!\xcdservice
accept
queue
enable
queue
where
queue
is the name of the local print queue,
xcdname
is the TROY XCD print server name (must
match the entry in the /etc/hosts file) or IP address and
xcdservice
is the TROY XCD print server binary or
text service. If this is the first printer configured, you
must also use the lpsched command immediately prior
to the accept command.
As an alternative, you may use Printer Manager in the
admintool utility under OpenWindows. Select Edit,
Add, and Add Access to Remote Printer. Then enter
the TROY XCD print server name in the format
xcdname!\xcdservice
as described above. Make sure
that the Printer Server OS is set to BSD (the default
setting), and then click Add.
Note that we recommend that use the /etc/hosts file
for the printer name rather than NIS or other name
services. Also note that due to a bug in the Sun lpd
implementation on Solaris 2.4 and earlier releases, you
may experience problems printing very long print jobs.
If this is the case, a workaround is to use the raw TCP
port with the HP JetDirect software as described later in
this chapter.
SCO UNIX Configuration
SCO UNIX requires TCP/IP V1.2 or later to work with
TROY XCD print servers. You must first configure the
/etc/hosts and /etc/printcap files as described in
step 2. Then run the sysadmsh program as follows:
