UNIX TCP/IP

UNIX TCP/IP Environments
System configuration
The machine uses the Line Printer Daemon Protocol (LPD) that supports TCP/IP as the
transport protocol. With the LPD, use the machine as a UNIX network printer.
The LPD supports spool mode, this is where print jobs from clients are spooled once
before output. It also supports non-spool mode, this is where print jobs are output
sequentially, without spooling.
Target computers
The target computers are as follows.
• Workstation or personal computer with RFC 1179 Line Printer Daemon Protocol
Interface
The LPD is available on the following interfaces:
• Ethernet 100Base-TX
• Ethernet 10Base-T
The applicable frame types conform to Ethernet II (Ethernet interface).
UNIX TCP/IP Installation
This section explains how to install the machine in a UNIX TCP/IP environment.
Installation Procedure
There are three stages.
Network Communication Setup
The machine needs to be set up and configured for TCP/IP.
Computer Setup
The computer OS needs to be configured for the machine.
Test Print
A print job should be submitted to make sure that the machine has been installed and
configured correctly.
Network Communication Setup
Use this procedure to set up the network communication parameters of the machine.
NOTE: Keep the SNMP port enabled while you use the machine on the TCP/IP
network.
NOTE: Some of the configuration options for this protocol are only available from
CentreWare Internet Services. Refer to
CentreWare Internet Services on page 149
.
Follow the steps below to establish TCP/IP.
