UNIX PRINTING 1 - 13

If you have not created a spool directory for the Brother Print/Fax 
server on your UNIX host computer, you will need to do so now (the 
printer setup utilities in HP/UX, AIX, Solaris 2.xx, and other systems 
will automatically create the spool directory). The lpd spool directory 
is usually located in the 

/usr/spool

 directory (check with your 

system manager to see if the location is different for your system). To 
create a new spool directory, use the 

mkdir

 command. For 

example, to create a spool directory for the queue laser1, you would 
enter:

mkdir /usr/spool/lpd/laser1

On some systems it is also necessary to start the daemon. This is 
done on Berkeley-compatible UNIX systems with the 

lpc start

command as shown in the following example: 

lpc start laser1
