2. Choose which Print / Fax server service you want to use. There are
several types of services available on Brother Print / Fax servers. Binary
services pass data through unmodified and are therefore required for
PCL or PostScript rasterized graphics printouts. Text services add a
carriage return at the end of each line for proper formatting of UNIX text
files (which end in linefeed and do not have carriage returns). The text
service can also be used for non-rasterized graphics, such as ASCII
PostScript graphics or many types of PCL graphics.
Choose one of the available services (a service name will be used in step
3):
BINARY_P1 Binary
data
TEXT_P1 Text data (CR added)
You may set up multiple print queues on your UNIX host computer for
the same Print / Fax server, each one with a different service name (for
example, one queue for binary graphics jobs and one for text jobs).
3. Configure the /etc/printcap file on each host computer to specify the
local print queue, the Print / Fax server name (also called remote
machine or rm), and the Print / Fax server service name (also called
remote printer, remote queue, or rp), and the spool directory.
This step applies to the majority of UNIX systems, including Linux, Sun OS (but
not Solaris 2.xx), Silicon Graphics (lpr/lpd option required), DEC ULTRIX, DEC
OSF/1, and Digital UNIX. SCO UNIX users should follow these steps, but
should also refer to the SCO UNIX Configuration section. Users of RS/6000 AIX,
HP/UX, Sun Solaris 2.xx, and other systems that do not use the printcap file
should skip to section 3-a. SCO user’s should also skip to section 3a (SCO uses
the printcap file, but this file is automatically configured via the
rlpconf
command)
