UNIX Printing Through TCP/IP
lpd UNIX Printing
lpd 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 NC-2 Print
Server.
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 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.
The NC-2 Print Server lpd recognizes the format of a certain printer
emulation and filters the data, if possible, so it can be printed on the printer
type you specify.
You can indicate to the NC-2 Print Server lpd what type of printer is
attached to by either:
1. Accepting the default port setting (PCL, PostScript and other), or
2. Changing the listed emulations via a standard IP based Web Browser.
The sections that follow give specific lpd setup instructions for various
systems.
