Setting up Network Servers
•
The Print queue or the Hold queue (or both) must be published.
The Hold queue is always published. Lpd printing to the Direct connection is not sup-
ported.
The following information applies especially to the DocuColor 40 CP:
•
DocuColor 40 CP is a printer controller that understands lpd protocols.
•
DocuColor 40 CP has a remote printer name you must use in order to communicate
with it successfully.
See the next section for details.
Important note about the remote printer name
Whichever UNIX system you use, the name used for remote printer (or
rp
in the
/etc/printcap
file) in configuring the DocuColor 40 CP must be one of the following
:
print
hold
print_DocuColor
hold_DocuColor
The remote printer or
rp
name is also used when setting up your Windows NT 4.0
workstation or server to connect to the DocuColor 40 CP over TCP/IP. Enter the
remote printer name when you set up your Windows NT 4.0 printer, as the “Name of
printer on that (lpd host) machine” in the Add lpd compatible printer dialog box (see
Getting Started).
Setting up the DocuColor 40 CP on TCP/IP networks
Every machine (host) on a TCP/IP network, including the DocuColor 40 CP, must
have a unique 32-bit internet address (IP address). Contact your network
administrator to obtain an address for the DocuColor 40 CP. Workstations on a TCP/
IP network can print directly to the DocuColor 40 CP as a remote printer, or can print
to a Windows NT 4.0 server or UNIX workstation acting as a print server.
