UNIX PRINTING 1 - 13

NC9100h_FM6.0

If you have not created a spool directory for the Brother Print/Fax
server on your UNIX host computer, you will need to do so now (the
printer setup utilities in HP/UX, AIX, Solaris 2.xx, and other systems
will automatically create the spool directory). The lpd spool directory
is usually located in the

/usr/spool

directory (check with your

system manager to see if the location is different for your system). To
create a new spool directory, use the

mkdir

command. For

example, to create a spool directory for the queue laser1, you would
enter:

mkdir /usr/spool/lpd/laser1

On some systems it is also necessary to start the daemon. This is
done on Berkeley-compatible UNIX systems with the

lpc start

command as shown in the following example:

lpc start laser1
