Setting up TCP/IP printing
Setting up the printing environment
To set up printing on a TCP/IP network, the network administrator must follow
these steps:
•
Specify the appropriate system and network settings in the printer’s Setup
menus.
The administrator must enter a valid IP address for the printer, and the gateway
address and subnet mask if they are used.
‘Print spooling is the process of sending a print jobs to a defined location on a
hard disk, in this case the Print or Hold queues. Printers without a hard disk drive
can only receive print jobs over the Direct connection. Jobs sent to the Direct
connection are transferred from the computer to the printer’s RAM.

:
If the printer has a hard disk drive and 32MB of memory installed, Direct,
Print, and Hold print connections are automatically available. If the printer does
not have a hard disk drive, only the Direct connection is available.
If the site is using NIS (Network Information Services), a superuser must add the
printer name and IP address to the system’s database of network printers.
1.
Add the Ci1000 to the network’s IP host table.
This step must be performed on the master NIS (server) machine. After adding
the printer entry, the updated database must be released to network users.
2.
For the printer name, specify the print server protocol, the print connection
(queue), and the spool file.
3.
Activate the printer connection.
Depending on your system, you may restart the printer daemon or tell the printer
to accept print requests.
UNIX server print queues
The lpr protocol is a printer spooling system. It is a set of programs that accepts
printing requests from many users on a network, routes them to the proper print
server (in this case, the Ci1000), and accepts requests to display a queue’s status or
to remove jobs from a queue.
The lpr system is included in the standard installation of Berkeley-based UNIX
systems, SunOS 4, and Solaris, and is an option for the SGI IRIX system.
