Overview of using LPD Queue as the Input Source
The PARIS Spooler provides an LPD function that allows you to search for
input from LPD queues. A job definition is created with LPD Queue as the
input source and when created, an LPD Log is activated to display the status of
the LPD server.
What is an LPD?
LPD (Line Printer Daemon
) is a printer server function that allows you to
configure your locally attached printer as a network printer. This enables you to
make print services on your locally attached printer available to other people on
the network.
A computer on a network (host) that can create a TCP/IP data stream and use
the LPD protocol can print remotely or act as a print server.
 
NOTE
It is not within the scope of this manual to enter into a full explanation of the
LPD function and how to set up your LPD print queues.
