2.17. THE ETHERNET INTERFACE QUICK CONFIGURATION
(
optional
)
2.17.1. G
ENERAL
C
ONFIGURATION
The server name, printed on the back of the interface, is based on the last six
bytes of its unique Ethernet address. Example : LPS_0D242F. You must
associate the interface with a service before network users can use the port.
The default names are :
LPS_xxxxxx_TEXT
for text jobs,
LPS_xxxxxx_PCL
for binary jobs,
LPS_xxxxxx_PS
for PostScript jobs,
where xxxxxx represents the last six numbers of the printer’s Ethernet address.
You may change LPS_xxxxxx. If you cannot use the default services, you must
create custom services. See the DIGITAL Laser Printer LN15 Ethernet User
Manual.
2.17.2. LAT C
ONFIGURATION
1
On the LAT host, create an application port to Port_1 of the LPS_xxxxxx
node.
2
Create a print queue that uses the LAT application port.
NOTE For PostScript printers, use DCPS. For
other printers, use LATSYM.
2.17.3. TCP/IP C
ONFIGURATION
1 Set the server’s IP address
a. Make an entry in the host’s ARP table:
arp -s <IPaddress> <server’s Ethernet address>
EXAMPLE If the IPaddress is to be set to
192.0.1.228 and the Internet address is :
00:80:a3:0d:fc:7a, then type :
arp -s 192.0.1.228 00:80:a3:0d:fc:7a
a. Ping the interface
ping <IPaddress>
b. Telnet into the server and use Define Server IPaddress to save the
address
2 Configure LPR on a UNIX host
a. To add a print queue, add the following to the /etc/hosts file:
<IP address> <server_name>
b. Add an entry to the /etc/printcap file:
<queue_nameprinter>:\
:rm = <server_name>:\
:rp = <service_name>:\
:sd = /usr/spool/lpd/<queue_name>:
c. Create the spooling directory
mkdir /usr/spool/lpd/<queue_name>
chmod 777 /usr/spool/lpd/<queue_name>
