UNIX Configuration This section explains how to set up a network printer and check print status using UNIX. Limitation To print from a UNIX workstation, use a file that the printer supports. Before Setup Setting up varies depending on the printing commands. Make sure to make settings accordingly. Using the lp / lpr commands A Use the installation shell script to register the device option, as well as the printer host name and the IP address. See p.4 "Using the Installation Shell Script". See p.13 "Printing Method". B Start printing. Using the rsh / rcp / ftp commands A Edit the host file to register the printer host name and the IP address. B Start printing. See p.13 "Printing Method". Reference See p.8 "After Executing the Installation Shell Script" for host file editing. Note If you cannot edit the host file, use the install shell script to register the host name. 3 UNIX Configuration Using the Installation Shell Script 1 The installation shell script helps with the setup process. The installation shell script automates some of the tasks in configuring /etc/hosts, /etc/printcap; creating the spool directory for BSD UNIX; and running the lpadmin command for System V UNIX. Preparation The installation shell script can be used on the following workstations: (it cannot be used with other types of workstations.) · · · · · · SunOS 4.x.x Solaris 2.x(Sun OS 5.x), Solaris 7, Solaris 8, HP-UX Redhat Linux UnixWare OpenServer Note Depending on security settings when installed, rsh / rcp /telnet may not be usable with Red Hat 7.1 or later. Change the security level to allows use of rsh / rcp /telnet. For more information about how to change the setting, see the operating instructions for Red Hat. When you use NIS (Network Information Service) or DNS, you should configure the server before running the installation shell script. Installation shell script does not support CUPS. For more information about the settings of CUPS, see the manual that comes with the UNIX workstation , and the CUPS' manual. When you use Solaris and HP-UX, you can set UNIX configuration with admintools that came with Solaris and HP-UX. For more information about setting using the admintools, see the admintool's manual. Reference For more information about the configuration utility of your operating system, see the manual that came with the utility. Assigning the IP Address Preparation Configure the machine to use TCP/IP. · Make sure that TCP/IP on the machine is set to active. (Default setting is active.) · Assign an IP address to the machine and configure the other settings required for TCP/IP. 4 Using the Installation Shell Script Reference For more information about how to make the above settings, see the manual that comes with this machine. Checking the IP address configuration Follow the procedure below to make sure that the IP address has been configured correctly. · The following procedure uses the sample IP address: 192.168.15.16. 1 A Enter the following: # ping 192.168.15.16 If the address has been configured correctly, the following message appears: 192.168.15.16 is alive If the address has been configured incorrectly, the following message appears: no answer from 192.168.15.16 Note When you use NIS, the IP address and host name are written to /etc/hosts on the master server. When you use DNS, the information is written to a data file on the name server. After writing the host name and IP address to the file, make sure that the configuration is correct by pinging the host. # ping host_name If the host name is registered with an IP address, the server can access the printer using its host name instead of its IP address. Executing the Installation Shell Script Having configured the printer IP address, follow the procedure below to execute the installation shell script and set up the workstation printing environment. Preparation Before executing the installation shell script, the IP address, host name and printer name are required. The following procedures use the sample IP address: 192.168.15.16; sample host name: nphost; and sample printer name: np. Note Use ftp to get the installation shell script from the printer. A Log on to the workstation as root. Note If you do not log on as root, the installation shell script will not run. B Get the installation shell script from the printer. 5 UNIX Configuration 1 A Move to the directory you want to copy the installation shell script to. B Use ftp to connect to the printer with the IP address that you just configured. # ftp 192.168.15.16 Connected to 192.168.15.16 220 printer FTP server ready. name (192.168.15.16:root:) C When a user name is requested, leave the user name field blank and press the {RETURN} ( {ENTER} ) key. } } 331 Password required for root. Password: D When a password is requested, leave the password field blank and press the {RETURN} ( {ENTER} ) key. } } 230 User root logged in. ftp> E Enter the following to get the installation shell script: ftp> get install F Close the ftp session. ftp> bye 221 Goodbye. # C Run the installation shell script. # sh ./install Note Insert a period and slash before the current directory. D Enter a number to select the workstation operating system that you are using. Network printer install shell Select your workstation OS type 1.SunOS 4.x.x 2.Solaris 2.x, Solaris 7-9 (SunOS5.x) 3.HP-UX 4.UnixWare 5.Linux 6.OpenServer 7.Quit Enter <1-7>: 2 Note SunOS, UnixWare, and OpenServer appear on the screen, but they are not supported. Use Solaris, HP-UX, or Linux. 6 If you select "7", the installation shell script ends. Using the Installation Shell Script E Enter the printer's IP address. Enter Printer host IP address [return= skip]: 192.168.15.16 Note The IP address will be added to the /etc/hosts file. 1 If the host name of the printer has already been configured, press the {RETURN} ( {ENTER} ) key. Nothing will be added to the /etc/hosts file. } } F Enter the printer's host name. Enter Printer host name : nphost Note The host name will be added to the /etc/hosts file. G Configure the printer name. If no IP address was entered in step E, nothing is added to the /etc/hosts file. Enter logical printer name [default nphost_prn] If you want to use the default name, press the {RETURN} ( {ENTER} ) key. En} } ter a new name, if you want to use a different one. Note The host name entered in step F followed by "_prn" appears in "default". H Set the print option. Enter remote printer name [default lp]: · Press the {RETURN} ( {ENTER} ) key, and printing with PCL or PostScript } } is enabled. · If you want to set the device option, enter the option parameter. Enter remote printer name [default lp]:tray=tray1 For more information about the device option, see p.18 "Specifying the Device Option". · If you enter "text", text printing is enabled. If you enter "text", printing with PCL and PostScript is disabled. Enter remote printer name [default lp]:text Limitation You can enter up to 14 characters for HP-UX 11.0, 256 for Solaris 8 and Red Hat Linux 7.0, and 51 for Red Hat Linux 6.2. When printing with the lp command, use ( _ ) instead of ( = ) and ( ; ) instead of ( , ) for operating systems that cannot use ( = ) and ( , ) such as Solaris 2.5 or later. After setup with the installation shell script is complete, and if you entered the IP address in step E, the following message appears: hosts file is modified 7 UNIX Configuration I Perform a test print to make sure that the settings are correct. 1 # lpr -Pnp file_name # lp -d np file_name For more information about lpr and lp, see p.13 "Printing Method". Deleting the printer To print using the lp or lpr command, the option specified when the installation shell script is executed is used. Change the option in accordance with the workstation you are using. BSD UNIX workstation, Linux Delete the printer entry from /etc/printcap, and then execute the installation shell script again. Select options during the setup process. Alternatively, search the printer entry from /etc/printcap, and change its rp capability to option setting. Solaris, HP-UX Delete the printer entry, and then execute the installation shell script again. Select options during the setup process. To delete the printer entry, follow the procedure below: A Stop the scheduler. # /usr/sbin/lpshut B Delete the printer. # /usr/sbin/lpadmin -x printer_name C Restart the scheduler. # /usr/lib/lpsched After Executing the Installation Shell Script The printing environment is set up automatically when the installation shell script is executed. This section describes setup contents when the installation shell script is executed under Red Hat Linux, Solaris, and HP-UX. Linux Adding the IP address and host name to the /etc/hosts file The following line is added to the /etc/hosts file. The IP address and printer host name which you previously entered in the installation script will be used: 192.168.15.16 nphost # Network Printer · 192.168.15.16 is the IP address, nphost is the host name, from # to the end of the line is the comment. 8 Using the Installation Shell Script Note The /etc/hosts file contains a list of the IP addresses and host names of all hosts communicating on the network. Each entry is delimited with a space or a tab, and each line is separated with a return. If you do not use NIS or DNS, you must manually enter the IP address and host name of each workstation using the network printer in the /etc/hosts file. 1 Adding an entry to the /etc/printcap file The following entry is added to the /etc/printcap file, which is the configuration for printing with the lpr command. In order to use the lpr command to print, you need to edit the /etc/hosts file, add an entry for the network printer to the /etc/printcap file and create a spool directory: ##PRINTTOOL3## REMOTE np|Network Printer:|np|Network Printer:|np|Network Printer:|np|Network Printer:\ :rm=nphost:\ :rp=option:\ :sd=/var/spool/lpd/npd:\ :lf=/var/log/npd-errs:\ :sh:\ :mx#0: Note The /etc/printcap file is used to register the name and attributes of a printer. You must make an entry for the network printer in the /etc/printcap file of all workstations using the network printer. You must make an entry for each printer option when using the same printer. Each entry is separated with colons into several fields. The syntax is to begin each entry with a colon, followed by the entry, and then end with a colon, a back slash, and then a return. The first line of the field is the name of the printer. You use this name when logging on to a network printer from a workstation. You can define several different names by separating each name with the "|" character. The second and following lines contain the printer's attributes. Attributes are represented by two-character names referred to as capabilities. For more information about capabilities, see the following table: Capability rm rp Explanation Host name of the printer. Optional specification. "lp" will be assigned, if the option is not used. sd Path name of the spool directory. Value required for the network printer. The host name that was registered with the /etc/hosts file. Select options for printing. For more information about available options, see p.18 "Specifying the Device Option". Path name of the spool directory that is to be created. 9 UNIX Configuration Capability lf Explanation Path name of the log file. Maximum file size which the directory can copy. When set to 0, the size is unlimited. If nothing is entered, the size is set to 1024 k. Value required for the network printer. Path name of the log file. For example /var/log/lpd-errs. mx None, or something suitable. 1 Making the spool directory Create a spool directory under /var/spool/lpd. The name of the spool directory should be the name of the printer followed by a "d". Note The spool directory is used to control data used for print jobs. For example, when a print job is created, a temporary copy of the data used is created in the spool directory. All workstations accessing the network printer need to have a spool directory for the network printer. A spool directory should be made for every network printer entry listed in the /etc/printcap file. The spool directory should normally be made under /var/spool/lpd and the name should match that listed under the sd capability in /etc/printcap. Change the owner and group of the directory to root and lp. The following examples show how to make a /var/spool/lpd/npd spool directory: # cd /var/spool/lpd # mkdir npd # chown root npd # chgrp lp npd Making the log file Error messages are logged to a file created in the /var/log directory. The log file name is the printer name followed by "d-errs". Note The log file is used for logging errors or warning messages by the UNIX workstation. The log file should be made for every network printer entry listed in the /etc/printcap file. The log file should normally be made under /var/log directory and the name should match that listed under the lf capability in /etc/printcap. Change the owner and group of the log file to root and lp. The following examples show how to make a /var/log/npd-errs file: # cd /var/log # touch npd-errs # chown root npd-errs # chgrp lp npd-errs 10 Using the Installation Shell Script Solaris Adding the IP address and host name to the /etc/hosts file The following line is added to the /etc/hosts file. The IP address and printer host name previously entered in the installation script will be used. 192.168.15.16 nphost # Network Printer · 192.168.15.16 is the IP address, nphost is the host name, from # to the end of the line is the comment. Note The /etc/hosts file contains a list of IP addresses and host names of all hosts communicating on the network. Each entry is delimited with a space or a tab, and each line is separated with a return. 1 If you do not use NIS or DNS, you must manually enter the IP address and host name of each workstation using the network printer in the /etc/hosts file. Registering the printer The installation shell script registers the printer as a remote printer following the procedure below: A If your workstation is Solaris 2.5.1, register the print server and print client to the print service. # lpsystem -t bsd -R 0 -y Network Printer nphost B Register the printer as a remote printer. # lpadmin -p np -s nphost!option -T dump -I any · np is the printer name, nphost is the host name. For more information about "option", see p.18 "Specifying the Device Option". "lp" will be assigned, if the option is not used. When printing with the lp command, use ( _ ) instead of ( = ) and ( ; ) instead of ( , ) for operating systems that cannot use ( = ) and ( , ) such as Solaris 2.5 or later. C If your workstation is Solaris 2.5.1, set the print job to active so it can be accepted by the print queue. /usr/lib/accept np D If your workstation is Solaris 2.5.1, set the print job to active to print. /usr/lib/enable np 11 UNIX Configuration HP-UX Adding the IP address and host name to the /etc/hosts file The following line is added to the /etc/hosts file. The IP address and printer host name previously entered in the installation script will be used: 192.168.15.16 np # Network Printer · 192.168.15.16 is the IP address, np is the host name, from # to the end of the line is the comment. Note The /etc/hosts file contains a list of IP addresses and host names of all hosts communicating on the network. Each entry is delimited with a space or a tab, and each line is separated with a return. 1 If you do not use NIS or DNS, you must manually enter the IP address and host name of each workstation using the network printer in the /etc/hosts file. Registering the printer The installation shell script registers the printer as a remote printer following the procedure below: A Stop the scheduler. /usr/lib/lpshut B Register the printer. /usr/lib/lpadmin -Pnp -v/dev/null -mrmodel -ormnphost -orpoption -ob3 · np is the printer name, nphost is the host name. For more information about "option", see p.18 "Specifying the Device Option". "lp" will be assigned, if the option is not used. C Set the printer so the print job is listed in the print queue. /usr/lib/accept np D Set the printer to perform the print job. /usr/lib/enable np E Restart the scheduler. /usr/lib/lpsched 12 Printing Method Printing Method Printing with lpr, lp Execute one of the following commands according to type of workstation used: 1 BSD UNIX workstation, Linux % lpr -Pprinter_name file_name [file_name...] For example: The printer name is np, file names are file1 and file2 % lpr -Pnp file1 file2 Solaris, HP-UX % lp -d printer_name file_name [file_name...] For example: The printer name is np, file names are file1 and file2 % lp -d np file1 file2 Note "printer_name" is the name entered when executing the installation shell script. You can use wild cards ( * or ? ) for the file name. The message "print session full" appears when the maximum number of print requests has been reached (max. 5 sessions --Job Spool setting available). You should try to print again when the number of requests is less than five. You can check the number of print requests using telnet. For more information about using telnet, see the manual that comes with this machine. The number of print sessions does not change, whether you increase or reduce the machine's total memory size. Printing with rsh, rcp, ftp You can also print using the rsh, rcp and ftp commands. Note Print using a format the printer supports. You should try to print again when the number of requests is zero. The message "print session full" appears when the maximum number of print requests is reached. The maximum number of print sessions varies depending on the command. When using the rsh, rcp command, the maximum number of print sessions is 5; when using the ftp command, the number is 3. 13 UNIX Configuration rsh % rsh host_name print < file_name For example: host name is nphost, file name is file1 % rsh nphost print < file1 Note "host_name" is the name entered when executing the installation shell script. 1 If you are using HP-UX, use the remsh command instead of rsh. rcp To specify and print the file % rcp file_name [file_name...] host_name: For example: host name is nphost, file names are file1 and file2 % rcp file1 file2 nphost: To print all of the files in a directory % rcp -r directory_name host_name: For example: host name is nphost, directory name is directory % rcp -r directory1 nphost: Note "histamine" is the name entered when executing the installation shell script. You can use wild cards ( * or ? ) for the file name. ftp Use the put or mput commands depending on the number of files to be printed. Limitation File names cannot contain "=" or ",". To print one file ftp> put file_name To print several files ftp> mput file_name [file_name...] Note You can use wild cards ( * or ? ) for the file name with the mput command. 14 Printing Method The following procedure shows an example of how to print a file using ftp. It is not possible to set options with the mput command: A Start ftp using the IP address or host name of the printer. % ftp IP_address B Enter the user name. Skip the password, and then press the {RETURN} ( {EN} TER} ) key. } Name: Password: 1 C Set the file transfer mode to binary. ftp> bin Note If the file transfer mode is not set to binary, the image may not be printed correctly. D Print the file. Note For example, to print the file named file1: ftp> put file1 For example, to print the two files named file1 and file2: ftp> mput file1 file2 E Exit ftp. ftp> bye 15 UNIX Configuration Printer Status 1 You can use the following commands to have information and printer status displayed or copied to a file. Use the lpq or lpstat command to display the status of the printer or information about print jobs. Use the rsh, rcp or ftp commands to get more detailed information from the printer. Viewing the Print Job Status with lpq and lpstat BSD UNIX workstation, Linux % lpq -Pprinter_name For example: Printer name is np % lpq -Pnp System V UNIX, Solaris, HP-UX % lpstat -o printer_name For example: Printer name is np % lpstat -o np Note If you are using HP-UX, do not put a space between "-o" and "printer name". Viewing the Printer Status with rsh and ftp Use the rsh or ftp command to display printer status or information about print jobs using specified parameters. You can use these commands for BSD and System V UNIX. Note If your workstation is HP-UX, use the remsh command instead of rsh. % rsh host_name parameter % ftp host_name User user_name password: ftp> get parameter Note Leave the user name and password blank, and then press the {RETURN} ( {EN} TER} ) key. } "-" indicates standard output. Display will be displayed on screen if standard output has not been specified. 16 Printer Status Parameters that can be used with rsh, rcp and ftp : Parameter stat info prnlog syslog Information returned Status of the printer. Information about print jobs. Information about the paper tray, output tray and printer language. Record of the last 10 jobs printed. Record of messages about the network interface board. 1 Copying Information to a File Use the rcp or ftp command to copy information about specified parameters to a file. You can use these commands for BSD and System V UNIX. Note The same parameters are used as those above. % rcp host_name:parameter file_name % ftp host_name User: user_name password: ftp> get parameter file_name Note Leave the user name and password blank, and then press the {RETURN} ( {EN} TER} ) key. } 17 UNIX Configuration Specifying the Device Option 1 With the following options, you can print with specific printer functions. This manual covers all models, and therefore contains functions and settings that may not be available for your model. Configuring the Device Option The configuration of the print option varies, depending on printing commands. · rsh % rsh host_name print option1=value1,... < file_name · rcp % rcp file_name host_name:option1=value1,... · ftp ftp> put file_name option1=value1,... Host_name is the printer host name. File_name is the file name you want to print. The device option is specified in the form of "option=value". For more information about types of device options and values, see the following explanations. For example, the following settings are for printing with rsh, rcp, and ftp : switch to PostScript, feed paper from paper feed tray 1, set the printing amount to 3 sets, and print with the resolution set to 600 dpi (host_name :nphost, file_name :file1). · rsh % rsh nphost print filetype=postscript,tray=tray1,copies=3, resolution=600 < file1 · rcp % rcp file1 nphost:filetype=postscript,tray=tray1,copies=3, resolution=600 · ftp ftp> put file1 filetype=postscript,tray=tray1,copies=3, resolution=600 Limitation The optional character strings the printer can recognize contain a maximum of 512 bytes. The number of available characters used as options is limited, depending on operating systems. Note Multiple options must be separated by commas (,). Do not use spaces. When the printing file contains the PCL, PJL, PostScript commands control of the option, the command takes priority. 18 Specifying the Device Option Enter the option using the lp or lpr command, when the shell script is implemented. The option settings made here are configured as default. You must create another printer if you want to change printer option settings. For more information about changing the configured option, see p.8 "Deleting the printer". When printing with the lp command, use ( _ ) instead of ( = ) and ( ; ) instead of ( , ) for operating systems that cannot use ( = ) and ( , ) such as Solaris 2.5 or later. 1 - Using the cd command with ftp For printing with ftp, if the option is specified using the cd command, it becomes available whenever the put or mput command is used. ftp> cd option Note The pwd command shows the current option settings. ftp> pwd List of the device options Device option filetype filter tray paper Value pcl, postscript ( ps ) text tray1~tray4, lct, bypass, all a3~a6, a3wide, jisb4, jisb5, jisb6, ledger, letter, halfletter, legal, executive, fgl, foolscap, folio, com10, C5, C6, dl, monarch, k8, k16, custom plain, recycled, special, thick, thick2, thin, tabstock, transparency, color, letterhead, preprinted, prepunched, labels, bond, cardstock, plainduplexbackside, thickduplexbackside, translucent, usercolor1, usercolor2, plainorrecycled Function summary.
