To set up your host with an interface file, add an entry to the /etc/
printcap file, then create and edit its associated files and directories.

hp:\
:sh:pw#80:mx#0\
:lp=/dev/spike.prn:\
:sd=/usr/spool/lpd/spike/prn:\
:lf=/usr/spool/lpd/spike/prn/log\
:af=/usr/spool/lpd/spike/prn/acct:\
:if=/usr/spool/lpd/spike/prnnpr.if:

Adapter named spike through the interface file npr.if. To create these 
entries, do the following:

and at the end of this comment block, you will find the following:
