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 XCD 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
XCD 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
On some systems it is also necessary to start the
daemon. This is done on Berkeley-compatible UNIX
systems with the lpc start command as shown in the
following example:
lpc start laser1
5. The final step before printing is to add the IP address to
the TROY XCD print server. Consult with your system
