26 6 Printing From UNIX
3. Registering PS01 set using OkiWebRemote
Important
• To specify multiple entries for the logical printer, make sure each printer entry is assigned its unique
spool directory. If a single spool directory is used for multiple printer entries, the printer select option may
not function correctly.
Note
• Add the printer name to the initial field of /etc/printcap. To specify multiple printer names, separate them
by “|”.
• lp: The connected port device. No need to specify.
• rp: This is the printer name of the remote host. The printer name corresponds to the print
language/mode.
The output style may be specified at the same time. The parameters for specifying a style
are the same as those available for the -C option. As the example of (2) shows, insert “_ ”
between the printer name and output parameters. You can enter up to 14 characters.
If PS%n or PLT%nH is specified for the printer name as in the example of (3), however,
the printer does not operate normally with an output style different from the preset one.
Set a printer name corresponding to the print language/mode and output style.
• rm: This is the host name of the remote printer. Input the host name registered with /etc/hosts.
• sd: This is the spool directory. Specify the absolute path of the spool directory which must be
created.
• lf: This is the error log file. Create one if it does not already exist.
• mx#0: The spool size limit is cancelled.
Refer to
• Manuals, such as online manuals, that came with various workstations
• For details about the -C option: “6.5 -C Option (lpr Command)” (P. 34).
Examples of Settings for Solaris 2.X
The examples below show printer settings for Solaris 2.6 where the printer host name is
printer1.
1. Registering a printer (printer name: P001) supporting the PostScript language
2. Registering a printer (printer name: P002) supporting the PostScript language that
feeds paper from an A4-size paper tray for duplex printing
3. Registering a logical PostScript printer PS01 set using OkiWebRemote
Note
• Enter the host name and printer name of the remote host after -s by linking with !. The printer name
corresponds to the print language/mode.
• The output style may be specified at the same time. The parameters for specifying a style are the same
as those available for the -C option. As the example of (2) shows, insert “_” between the printer name
and output parameters. You can enter up to 14 characters.
• If PS%n or PLT%nH is specified for the printer name as in the example of (3), however, the printer does
not operate normally with an output style different from the preset one.
• Set a printer name corresponding to the print language/mode and output style.
