2. Make sure the rlp process is not running by typing at
the UNIX prompt:
ps -e | grep rlp
If rlp is not running, you will not see any output after
executing this command.
If rlp is running (that is, if you see output after
executing this command), kill the process with the
command:
kill -15 process_number
3. Make sure the following entry is in the
“etc/inetd.conf” file:
printer stream tcp nowait root /usr/lib/
rlpdaemon rlpdaemon -I
If the rlp daemon is not running when a print request
is made, this entry in “/etc/inetd.conf” tells inetd to
auto-start the rlp daemon to service the pending print
request. This is helpful if the daemon was terminated
for some reason. For more information on inetd or “/
etc/inetd.conf”, type man inetd or man inetd.conf.
4. Make sure the following entry is in the
“/etc/services” file
printer 515/tcp spooler
5. Start inetd by typing the following at the UNIX
prompt:
/etc/inetd -c
Procedure
HP-UX uses an interactive utility called SAM (System
Administration Manager) to configure printing. To
configure printing using SAM, do the following:
1. Login to the HP-UX system as root.
2. Invoke the SAM utility by typing sam at the UNIX
prompt. (We suggest you do this at the system
console. SAM uses a screen oriented interface that
works best at the console.)
