1 - 10 UNIX PRINTING

If this is the first printer configured, you must also use the 

lpsched

 

command prior to the 

accept

 command.

As an alternative, you may use Printer Manager in the Admintool 
utility under OpenWindows. Select 

Edit

Add

, and 

Add Access to 

Remote Printer

. Then enter the Print/Fax server name in the format 

prnservername!\prnserverservice

 as described above. 

Make sure that the printer server OS is set to 

BSD

 (the default 

setting), and click 

Add

.

Note that we recommend that you use the 

/etc/hosts

 file for the 

printer name rather than NIS or other name services. Also note that 
due to a bug in the Sun lpd implementation on Solaris 2.4 and earlier 
releases, you may experience problems printing very long print jobs. 
If this is the case, a workaround is to use the raw TCP port software 
as described later in this chapter.
