❖ 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.

❒ 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.

❒ 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.

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 ac-
cepted by the print queue.

D

If your workstation is Solaris 2.5.1, set the print job to active to print.
