Configuring IP Address by RARP  
Add the combination of IP address and Ethernet address to be used by the PRICOM in UNIX  
/etc/ethers and activate RARPD. IP address will be configured on PRICOM by turning the  
power on.  
-To configure IP address by RARP, you need a workstation that is running within the network.  
TIP  
The below shows an example of IP address configuration by UNIX RARP server.  
Example: Ethernet address is “00809200110f”, IP address is “192.168.10.100” and host  
name is “pbox”.  
1. Add following configuration to /etc/ethers.  
00:80:92:00:11:0f 192.168.10.100 #pbox  
2. Reboot RARPD.

2. Printing  
2-1 This section explains how to print using [lp] command. For more details, refer to Solaris manual.  
# lp -d pboxlp <Name of print file>  
This causes the banner page to be automatically printed.  
To disable the banner printing feature, add the following option, “-o nobanner”.  
# lp -d pboxlp -o nobannert <Name of print file>  
Alternatively, type,  
# lpadmin -p pboxlp -o nobanner  
directly edit the filter file generated under /etc/lp/interfaces.  
Either of these options disables banner print function.  
Example: Using an editor e.g. vi, open the file shown below. Change “nobanner=no” to  
“nobanner=yes”.  
# vi /etc/lp/interfaces/pboxlp  
nobanner=no ---> nobanner=yes  
3. Cancel the print request.  
3-1 Use “cancel” command to cancel the current print job request.  
-Depending on the timing or Solaris specification, canceling attempt will fail.  
TIP  
4. Check the printer status  
4-1 Use “lpstat” to verify the printer status.  
# lpstat -p pboxlp  
-Depending on the UNIX specification, the command will fail to correctly display the printer status.

Command absolute path and configuration method may vary depending on OS version. Refer

-Remote printer can not be used with PRICOM.  
TIP  
1. Prepare the print queue.  
1-1 Log in to the UNIX machine by “root”.  
# login root  
1-2 Cancel the print scheduler.  
# /usr/sbin/lpshut  
1-3 Register the print server.  
Example: Register the host name “pbox”:  
# /usr/sbin/lpsystem -R0 -t bsd pbox  
1-4 Configure the print queue.  
Example: Register the print queue name “pboxlp”:  
#/usr/sbin/lpadmin -p pboxlp -s pbox!lp  
(Name of print queue) (Name of the host) ( Name of logical printer)  
When using csh, replace “/!” or “\!” with “!”.  
The “lp” following “!” represents the name of the PRICOM logical printer.  
NOTE  
1-5 Activate the print scheduler.  
#/usr/bin/sh /etc/init.d/lp start

2. Printing.

# lp -d pboxlp <Print file name>  
3. Cancel the print request.  
3-1 Use the “cancel” command to cancel the current print job request.  
# cancel pboxlp- <Name of print file>  
4. Check the printer status.  
4-1 Use the “lpstat” to verify the printer status.  
# lpstat -p pboxlp  
-Depending on the UNIX specification, the command will fail to correctly display the printer status.  
NOTE  
[Limits]  
When running PRICOM with Solaris 2.x, following limits occurs due to Solaris specifications.  
TIP  
1) If, after starting printing, the printer becomes off line and cannot receive data for quite a while,  
timeout occurs on the Solaris side and when the printing continues (re-connection).the first  
page will be sent again.  
2) When the printer status is displayed in the form “lpstat -p<printer name>”, optional character  
string returned to show the status (e.g. PrinterReady) cannot be interpreted by the Solaris. As a  
result, “Faulted” is displayed followed by unintentional characters.  
3) When a print-related command is sent to PRICOM while the Solaris is sending data from the  
same machine, the command cannot function as it should. This is because Solaris cannot  
output another packet until it finishes the transmission of the current data. Thus, “system not  
responding” will be displayed in response to “lpstat -p <printer name>.  
4) Certain commands such as lpstat following cancel command will result in error. In such case,  
printer scheduler daemon may not be running, so verify using “lpstat -r”. If “scheduler is not  
running” is displayed, reboot the printer scheduler daemon by typing in as below.  
/bin/sh /etc/init.d/lp start  
5) Even if “cancel” is used to delete a job that does not exist, no error occurs with Solaris.

Printing Mode  
This section explains about print server mode and remote printer mode.  
Print Server Mode  
When PRICOM is used in print server mode, no other print server (PC on NetWare server or  
a PC exclusively used for print server) is required. PRICOM operates in the following way  
when in the print server mode.  
1. A print job is spooled from the client to the NetWare server.  
2. PRICOM derives a job directly from the NetWare server.  
3. Printing starts.

Remote Printer Mode  
When using PRICOM in remote printer mode, other print servers (PC on NetWare server or  
a PC exclusively used for print server) are required. This mode makes use of NetWare normal  
printing feature (PSERVER.EXE/PSERVER.NLM). Printing in remote printer mode proceeds  
as follows.  
1. Spool the print job from the client to NetWare server.  
2. The Print server (PC on NetWare server or a PC exclusively used for print) derives the job from the  
Netware server.  
3. The Print server transfers the job to the printer assigned to the print queue.

DHCP/BOOTP is a protocol, via which IP address  
gets assigned by the BOOTP server or DHCP  
server. If you use DHCP/BOOTP server, the  
DHCP/BOOTP server must be in the same  
segment as the print server. This print server  
detects DHCP and BOOTP automatically. If more  
than 1 address is returned, the IP address which is  
returned first will be used.  
ENABLE  
Use RARP  
Enable/Disable RARP protocol operations. RARP  
is a protocol, via which the IP address gets  
assigned by the RARP server. If you use a RARP  
server, the RARP server must be in the same  
segment as the print server.

Subnet Mask  
Setting the print server subnet mask. The subnet  
mask must be 4 numbers, each between 0-255  
(eg. 255.255.255.0). However, entering 0.0.0.0

Default Gateway  
Setting the default gateway address. The default  
gateway address must be 4 numbers, each  
between 0-255 (eg. 192.168.100.240). If you use a
