13.2.3 Verify MFP Server’s IP Address

To verify your MFP Server is responding to the newly assigned IP

address using a PING command:

ping ip-address

13.2.4 Configure Remote LPD Printing on the Host

The procedure you use to configure your Unix/Linux host(s) to

allow printing to your network remote MFP Server varies between

different varieties of Unix/Linux. The procedure below can be used

for Unix/Linux variants that are related to BSD Unix, such as

SunOS or Linux. For other versions of Unix/Linux, consult your

system documentation, keeping in mind that:

1. The MFP Server should be treated as a BSD networked MFP

Server host.

2. The host name should be the name (or IP address) that you

have assigned to the MFP Server.

3. The printer name (or queue name) on the remote host should

be lpt1, lpt2 or lpt3, the name of the printer port on the MFP

Server.

You will need to perform the tasks below, logged in as the

superuser (root). To configure your Unix/Linux host for printing,

1. Optionally, assign a name corresponding to the MFP Server’s

IP address. You can add this address to the /etc/hosts file, by

adding a line such as:

203.66.191.186
