TOPIC This article contains a correction to the LaserWriter 16/600 PS Setting Up, Connecting, and Using Your Printer manual. DISCUSSION In Chapter 4 "Setting Up the Printer for UNIX Users", on page 129 the manual states:
12) Test printing with the following command:
This is incorrect. In order to print properly, you need to use the following: lp -d print_queue_name filename
In other sections of the manual, it states to use lpr -P printer_IP_name. This is also incorrect, you need to use lpr -P print_queue_name
For "lpr", the "print_queue_name" is the entry name in the "printcap" file. For "lp", the "print_queue_name" is generated by the underlying UNIX printer spooler facility. |
