To print to this queue, use normal lp syntax:
# lp -dqueue_name filename
Solaris 2.6 – 7 PrintNet Setup
NOTE: Requires Superuser privilege in the borne shell. Assume
that you can ping and Telnet to the adapter.
The IP address of the PrintNet must be placed in the /etc/hosts file.
Syntax:
lpadmin -p [queue_name] -v /dev/null
lpadmin -p [queue_name] -i /usr/lib/lp/model/
netstandard
lpadmin -p [queue_name] -o dest=[host_name] -o
protocol=bsd -o timeout=60
lpadmin -p [queue_name] -s [host_name]!d1prn -I any
enable {queue_name]
accept [queue_name]
where
[queue _name] = any name, but not the name in the etc/hosts file or
d1prn
[host_name] = name in etc/hosts file
Troubleshooting
This installation procedure assumes that the PrintNet is configured
with the correct IP address, subnet mask, and gateway (if required).
You can also ping and telnet to the PrintNet.
Print an E-Net Test Page to verify the Ethernet settings.
See “Printing an Ethernet Test Page” on page 26.
The default PrintNet queue name is d1prn, however, the name can
be changed. To verify the queue name, print an E-Net Test Page or
telnet to the print server’s IP address and run a “list dest”
command.
NOTE: Depending on the shell, preceed the ! character with a \ to
avoid shell script errors.
