press
and then manually make the required changes to the en-
tries.
Do not change the device name in the
/etc/printcap
file, which was
given to the Network Card in step 3. The lp command line must refer-
ence the
:lp
entry recorded in the printcap file. The following shows an
example entry.
:lp=/dev/
:if=/usr/nic/infilter:\
:sd=/usr/spool/

The script creates a spool directory in
/usr/spool
and starts a daemon
for the newly configured printer. At this time, the script displays the
path you should use if you ever need to restart the daemon.
Example:
/usr/nic/lpr_print /dev/nic/
fast 10001 &
