Using the Ethernet Card with UNIX
This chapter explains how to set up the printer for different UNIX
systems using the lpr command.
The Ethernet card supports many standard UNIX commands and can
be configured from a host computer without using a special setup
utility.
The Ethernet card is able to function as a remote printer on systems
using TCP/IP Ethernet transfer with lpr remote printing protocol, or
standard ftp (file transfer protocol).
Note:
Because this Ethernet card does not convert data into the printer control
language, a printer driver and filter are necessary for each system.
Setting Up Different UNIX Systems Using the lpr
Command
The following UNIX systems can print using the standard lpr
command:
SunSoft Solaris 2.4 or later
SunOS 4.1.4 or later
IBM AIX 3.2.5 or later and 4.1.3 or later
