Example 2: Configuring the SunOS 4.1.3 print spooler for Sun SPARCstations
(serial interface)
In order to perform the following steps you must be superuser.
1 Create a directory for print spooling. All application users need read and write
permissions for this directory. For example, from the command line of a shell,
type:
mkdir /usr/spool/cad
chmod 777 /usr/spool/cad
2 Edit the /etc/printcap file to set up the printer configuration. You must assign a
name to each printer managed by the print spooler. Refer to the example below if
you need help completing this step.
3 Add the following lines to your
/etc/printcap file. The example assumes:
your printer is named
djet, and
your printer is connected to the device named
/dev/ttya
, and
the spooling directory you created in step 1 is called /usr/spool/cad.
# Entry for an HP printer on a serial port
djet:\
:lp=/dev/ttya:sd=/usr/spool/cad:br#9600:\
:lf=/usr/adm/lpd–errs:\
:sf:sh:mx#0:xc#0177777:xs#040040:fc#050:\
:ms=–evenp:
4 Make sure the printer’s baud rate is 9600 and parity is even.
