/usr/spool/lp/.rhosts and /etc/hosts files on the remote processor.

Remote Printing with the BSD UNIX Print Spooler
To establish the remote printer connections with a printer server running BSD UNIX, perform the
following steps:
1. Logon to the NMS host as root and
TYPE: mkdev rlp
PRESS: Enter
NOTE
The command mkdev rlp can only be run ONCE. Running the
command more than once will result in an incorrect lp configuration
requiring a complete reinstallation of the UNIX system on that
processor.
If remote line printing has already been installed, a message appears with the prompt:
Do you wish to continue?
TYPE: n
PRESS: Enter
TYPE: rlpconf
PRESS: Enter
and go to Step 3.
