mkdir /var/spool/lpd/pserverd

3. Add an entry to the host’s /etc/printcap file, similar to
the following:

printer-name:\

:lp=:\

:rm=203.66.191.186:\

:rp=lpt1:\

:lf=/var/spool/lpd/pserverd.log:\

:sd=/var/spool/lpd/pserverd:\

:mx#0:

Lines should be indented with tabs. More than one printer
name can be used, with variants separated by vertical
bars (name1|name2).

The rm= entry should correspond to the IP address you
have assigned to the print server. You can also use a host
name if you have assigned one in the /etc/hosts file.

The sd= entry should correspond to the spool directory
you created in the previous step.
