LPD/LPR Printing
LPD/LPR is an implementation of the standard UNIX line printer daemon which lets
you print across a TCP/IP network without the need to install software on your
workstation with all filtering and banners done by the printer. Remote printing uses
the same commands (lpr, lpq, lpc) as local printing.
The process begins when the lpr call finds a printer on a remote system by looking at
the remote (rm) entry in the /etc/printcap file for that printer. lpr handles a print job
for a remote printer by opening a connection with the lpd/lpr process on the remote
system and sending the data file (followed by the control file containing control
information for this job) to the remote system. The printer-based lpd then filters the
data and prints the job according to information contained in the control file and its
own printcap file.
Printer lpd recognizes the format of a certain printer emulations and filters the data, if
possible, so it can be printed on the printer type you specify. You can indicate to the
Printer lpd what type of printer is attached to by either:
• Accepting the default port setting (PCL, PostScript and other), or
• Changing the listed emulations via the Telnet or the HTML pages accessed by
MAP or WebAdmin.
The following sections give specific lpd/lpr setup instructions for various systems.
