Prerequisites
Before you proceed, the following prerequisites must
be met. Most of the time, steps 2 through 5 are already
configured since the HP-UX system is on a TCP/IP
network.
Do not perform steps 2 through 5 unless
the installation procedure fails!
1. The name OKIPRINTER and the IP address
assigned to the Network Print Server are in the “/
etc/hosts” file on the HP-UX system.
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 pro-
cess 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/ser-
vices” file
printer 515/tcp spooler
5. Start inetd by typing the following at the UNIX
prompt:
/etc/inetd -c
