CHAPTER ONE
Unix Printing
Printing from Unix/Linux using
TCP/IP
Overview
Brother print servers are supplied with the Transmission Control Protocol/Internet
Protocol (TCP/IP) protocol suite. Since virtually all UNIX host computers support
TCP/IP, this capability allows a printer to be shared on a UNIX Ethernet network. As
with all protocols, TCP/IP communications can proceed concurrently whilst other
protocols are active, this means that UNIX, NetWare, Apple, and other...

TCP/IP
Brother Print Servers appear to the network as a UNIX host computer with a unique
IP address running the lpd, line printer daemon, protocol. As a result, any host
computer that supports the Berkeley remote LPR command can spool jobs to Brother
Print Servers without the need for any special software on the host computer. For
special applications, raw TCP ports are also available.
The Brother NC-3100h and NC-4100h print servers also support the FTP protocol.
This protocol...

General TCP/IP UNIX Host Configuration
The configuration process for most UNIX systems is described in the following
steps. As this process varies, we recommend that you refer to your system
documentation (or man pages) for additional information.
1.
 Configure the /etc/hosts file on each UNIX host that needs to communicate
with the print server. Use your favorite editor to add an entry to the
/etc/hosts file containing the IP address and node name of the device. For
example:...

2.
 Choose which print server service you want to use. There are several types
of services available on Brother Print Servers. Binary services pass data
through unmodified and are therefore required for PCL or PostScript
rasterized graphics printouts. Text services add a carriage return at the end of
each line for proper formatting of UNIX text files (which end in linefeed and
do not have carriage returns). The text service can also be used for non-
rasterized graphics, such...

An example of a typical printcap file:
laser1|Printer on Floor 1:\
:lp=:\
:rm=BRN_310107:\
:rp=TEXT_P1:\
:sd=/usr/spool/lpd/laser1:
Make sure this information is added to the end of the printcap file. Also make sure
that the last character in the printcap file is a colon :
This will create a queue named laser1 on the host computer that communicates to a
Brother print server with a node name (rm) of BRN_310107 and a service name (rp)
of TEXT_P1 printing text files to a Brother...
