CHAPTER 7: UNIX System Network
7. UNIX System Network
The print server is available for TCP/IP printing by the UNIX lpd (Line Printer
Daemon) protocol. The lpd protocol that originated with the UNIX release is
based on the BSD UNIX version and is supported under most UNIX versions.
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. Refer to the related system documentation for the
correct syntax for your system.
To configure the print server for lpd printing:
1. Enable the print server’s TCP/IP support (see
Section 7.1
).
2. Set up the print server’s IP address (see
Section 7.2
).
3. Verify the print server’s IP address (see
Section 7.3
).
4. Configure the remote lpd printing on the host (see
Section 7.4
).
5. Print a test page (see
Section 7.5
).
7.1 Enable the Print Server’s TCP/IP Support
The print server’s default configuration has TCP/IP support enabled. You can
configure the print server to enable TCP/IP support using the configuration
program or the PSETUP program in the print server’s included CD-ROM.
7.2 Set Up the Print Server’s IP Address
The print server must have a unique IP address in order to be recognized by the
network.
You can set up the IP address on the various UNIX systems using either DHCP
(Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) or BOOTP (Bootstrap Protocol).
The print server will use the DHCP and BOOTP protocols to obtain its IP address
automatically if its IP address is configured as Auto (0.0.0.0).
