Hawking HWPS12UG, User Manual

Page: 56 / 126

6.1 Introduction
The HWPS12UG can use TCP/IP printing through the
Unix lpd (Line Printer Daemon) protocol. The lpd
protocol is based on the BSD version of Unix and is
supported under most versions of Unix.
This chapter explains how to configure the print
server for TCP/IP operation, and how to modify
configuration files on your Unix system to allow
printing to the print server. The configuration
examples in this manual follow the syntax for BSD
based Unix systems. Please refer to the related
system documentation for the correct syntax of your
system.
To configure the print server for lpd printing,
perform the following procedures below:
1. Enable the HWPS12UG’s TCP/IP Support.
2. Set the HWPS12UG’s IP address.
3. Verify the HWPS12UG’s IP Address.
4. Configure remote lpd printing on the host.
5. Print a test page.
In the next section, we will describe these five
procedures in depth.
