5.4.2 Solaris 1.1.3 (SunOS 4.1.3)
The lpdinst command creates the /usr/nic directory and copies some files. You then edit
the /etc/printcap file to include the printer and its spooler directory. The printcap entry
causes the file to be printed on the printer that contains the NIC.
1. Edit the /etc/printcap file and locate the entry for your printer at the end of the file.
2. Add the capability codes for remote host and remote printer, rm and rp, respectively.
Specify the NIC as the remote host and PORT1 as the remote printer. For example:
3. your_printername|NICprinter:\
:lp=:\
:rm=your_nic:\
:rp=PORT1:\
:sd=/usr/spool/your_dir/your_printername:
4. Exit from the file.
5. Create the spooling directory. For example:
mkdir /usr/spool/your_dir/your_dir
Go to Section 5.5 for instructions on running the nsconfig utility.
