TCP/IP Network Configuration 4-5
This will create a queue named
laser1
on the host
computer that communicates to a TROY XCD print
server with a node name (rm) of XCD_003C51 and a
service name (rp) of TEXT_P1 for printing text files to
the printer through the spool directory
/usr/spool/
lpd/laser1
.
If you are printing binary graphics files,
you would use the service BINARY_P1 instead of
TEXT_P1.
Note:
The rm and rp options are not available on all
UNIX systems, so if necessary check your
documentation (or man pages) to determine the
equivalent options.
Users of Berkeley-compatible UNIX systems can use
the lpc command to obtain the printer status:
%lpc status
laser1:
queuing is enabled
printing is enabled
no entries
no daemon present
Users of AT&T-compatible UNIX systems can
generally use the
lpstat
or
rlpstat
commands to
obtain similar status information. Because this
procedure varies from system to system, refer to your
system documentation for the exact usage.

Skip this section if you have completed Step 3,
unless you have an SCO UNIX system.
If you have an HP/UX system, IBM RS/6000 AIX
computer, or Sun Solaris 2.xx, there is no printcap file.
This is also true for some other AT&T-based UNIX
