1Unix Printing 1 Printing from Unix/Linux Using TCP/IP Overview Brother print servers are supplied with the Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) protocol suite. Since virtually all UNIX host computers support TCP/IP, this capability allows a printer to be shared on a UNIX Ethernet network. As with all protocols, TCP/IP communications can proceed concurrently while other protocols are active, this means that UNIX, NetWare, Apple, and other computers can share the same Br

5 The default name for a Brother print server is usually BRN_xxxxxx (where xxxxxx is the last six digits of the Ethernet address of the print server). 6 When configuring the PRINTCAP file, pay particular attention to the service names, BINARY_P1 and TEXT_P1. TCP/IP Brother print servers appear to the network as a UNIX host computer with a unique IP address running the lpd (line printer daemon) protocol. As a result, any host computer that supports the Berkeley remote LPR command can spool

The actual format of the entry may vary depending on your system, check your system documentation and also note the format of other entries in the /etc/hosts file. The node name in this file does not necessarily need to be the same as the one that is actually configured into the Brother print server (the name that appears on the printer settings page), however, it is good practice to make the names the same. Some operating systems, such as HP-UX, do not accept the "_" character in the def

3 Configure the /etc/printcap file on each host computer to specify the local print queue, the print server name (also called remote machine or rm), and the print server service name (also called remote printer, remote queue, or rp), and the spool directory. This step applies to the majority of UNIX systems, including Linux, Sun OS (but not Solaris 2.xx), Silicon Graphics (lpr/lpd option required), DEC ULTRIX, DEC OSF/1, and Digital UNIX. SCO UNIX users should follow these steps, but shou

The rm and rp options are not available on some UNIX systems, so if necessary check your documentation to determine the equivalent options. Users of Berkeley-compatible UNIX systems can use the lpc command to obtain the printer status: %lpc status laser1: queuing is enabled printing is enabled no entries no daemon present Users of AT&T-compatible UNIX systems can generally use the lpstat or rlpstat commands to obtain similar status information. Because this procedure varies from system to

Linux Configuration If you do not wish to use the command line interface to configure your Linux distribution, you may wish to use the Linux Printer System Manager application on your GUI. To do this, do the following: 1 From the Linux Printer System Manager screen, click the Add button. 2 You will now be asked to specify which Printer type you are using, select the Remote Unix (lpd) Queue option and click OK. 3 You must now specify the remote host name, remote queue name and the input fil

HP-UX Configuration In the case of HP-UX10.xx, the sam program is used to set up the remote printer. The steps are as follows: 1 Execute the sam program. From the list of options, select Printers and Plotters. 2 Select LP Spooler. 3 Select Printers and Plotters. 4 Select Actions and then Add Remote Printer/Plotter. 5 Enter any name as the Printer Name (this will be the name of the print queue). 6 Enter the IP address of the print server as the Remote System Name. 7 Enter the desired print se

Earlier versions of HP-UX use similar procedures to 10.xx users: 1 Enter sam and select Peripheral Devices and then Add Remote Printer (not Networked printer). 2 Enter the following remote printer settings (the other settings do not matter): ■ Line printer name (user-selectable). ■ Remote system name (the print server name; must match what is in hosts file or use print server IP address). ■ Remote printer queue (Print server binary or text service name, e.g. BINARY_P1 or TEXT_P1). ■ Remote

If this is the first printer configured, you must also use the lpsched command prior to the accept command. As an alternative, you may use Printer Manager in the Admintool utility under OpenWindows. Select Edit, Add, and Add Access to Remote Printer. Then enter the print server name in the format prnservername!\prnserverservice as described above. Make sure that the printer server OS is set to BSD (the default setting), and click Add. Note that we recommend that you use the /etc/hosts file
