Set up spool directories. After you have edited the /etc/hosts and
/etc/printcap files, create and set permissions for the spool directory you
specified. For example:
cd /usr/spool/lpd
mkdir colorprinter
chown daemon colorprinter
chgrp daemon colorprinter
chmod 770 colorprinter
Refer to your UNIX documentation for the correct command syntax for
your workstation.
Printer configuration
There are two steps to printer configuration:
1.
Set the printer’s IP address and other addressing information. The
Phaser 740 and 780 printers support the use of IP host name as well as
an IP address. See Chapter 8, “Setting the Printer’s IP Addressing
Parameters” for more information.
2.
Set the printer’s other TCP/IP parameters (optional):
■
Set host access and control-character filtering for each port.
■
Receiving printer status (Syslog, SNMP, or email notification).
For information on setting these TCP/IP parameters, see the
PhaserShare Networking Manual on the printer’s CD-ROM.
