1. Edit the printcap file: An example of a typical entry in the printcap file is:

LaserPrinter:\

:lp=:\
:rm=XCD:\
:rp=BINARY_P1:\
:sd=/usr/spool/lpd/LaserPrinter:

"LaserPrinter" is the queuename.
"XCD" matches the name in the hosts file.
"BINARY_P1" is the print server's service name. (NOTE: Use 
TEXT_P1 instead of BINARY_P1 for text files.)
"sd" is the spool directory.

2. Create the spool directory: The lpd spool directory is usually located in the

/usr/spool directory.   To create a new spool directory, use the mkdir com-
mand; for example:

mkdir /usr/spool/lpd/LaserPrinter

3. Print using the standard lpr command:

lpr –PLaserJet  filename

4. For AT&T based UNIX systems, such as SCO, use the standard lp command:

lp –dLaserJet  filename

To use a TROY print server with Sun Solaris, first use the Host Manager in the
