Network Interface Card
Read this manual before using the card. Keep readily available for reference.
Thank you very much for purchasing the Konica KN-303 Network Interface Card. This INSTRUCTION MANUAL includes instructions for making prints, handling the machine correctly, and safety precautions. Please read this manual before performing any printing operations or using the equipment in any way. [. . . ] The printer-based lpd then filters the data and prints the job according to information contained in the control file and its own printcap file. The network interface card lpd recognizes the format of a certain printer emulation and filters the data, if possible, so it can be printed on the printer you specify. You can indicate to the network interface card lpd what type of print controller it is attached to by either: · Accepting the default port setting (PCL, PostScript and other), or · Changing the listed emulations via a standard IP based Web Browser. The sections that follow give specific lpd setup instructions for various systems.
Setting Up a BSD Remote Printer to Use lpd
To set up a remote printer on the host that sends jobs to the network interface card using printer resident lpd, add an entry to the /etc/printcap file on your host for each printer you use. Make an entry naming the network interface card as the remote host and PORT1 as the remote printer name. A typical printcap entry is as follows:
<printer_name>\ (for example, lprprinter) :lp=:\ :rm=<remote_host>:\ ( for example, name as entered in /etc/hosts) :rp=PORT1:\ :sd=/usr/spool/lpd/<printer_name>: (for example, spool directory on system used to spool data and control files)
This entry will send jobs spooled at /usr/spool/lpd/<printer_name> to the printer designated <printer_name> to be printed at port 1 (the internal connection to the printer) of the network interface card designated as <remote_host>. For example, type:
mkdir /usr/spool/lpd/<printer_name>
To print via the spooler, use the lpr command. Type:
lpr-P <printer_name> < file_name>
Installation and testing are done. You are now ready to print.

Chapter 5 UNIX Configuration Setting Up an AIX Remote Printer to Use lpd
Use the following procedure to set up a remote printer on the host that sends jobs to the network interface card using the lpd of the network interface card. At the prompt, type:
#smit spooler <cr>
When a window appears, select Manage Remote Printers. When a window appears, change the values shown to configure the network interface card. You must replace the short and long form filter values with the values shown in the following table.
Data Requested Name of queue to add queue Destination Host Short Form Filter Long Form Filter Name of remote printer queue Name of device to add Example print1 printfast /usr/lpd/bsdshort /usr/lpd/bsdlong PORT1 print1 Data Description Name of local printer NIC IP hostname Required value Required value Network interface card Name of local queue
7.
After you have supplied all values, press Enter. You can now print.
Setting Up an AIX 4. 0 System
Use these procedures to install the network interface card in a AIX 4. 0 system: 1. Use the host address of the Konica Print Server for the Remote System. Test your printer by executing the following command:
lp -d<queue_name> <file_name>

Chapter 5 UNIX Configuration Setting Up an HP/UX Remote Printer to Use lpd
Set up a remote printer on the host that sends jobs to the network interface card using the lpd of the network interface card. At the prompt, type:
sam
When a window appears, select Printer/Plotter Manager. When a window appears, add values to configure the network interface card. See example below.
Data Requested Printer Name Remote System Name Remote printer Name Example myprinter fastprint PORT1 Description of Input Data name to be used in lp command Print Server hostname as in /etc/hosts lpd queue name

At the bottom of the screen, select Remote Printer is on BSD system from the three choices available. 11.
Ping should confirm your IP address with the message:
<IP address of the network interface card> is alive
If the connection is confirmed, you can now print.
Setting Up an AS/400 System to Use lpd
When working with the output queue description (WORKOUTQD), there are several fields that must be defined for the network interface card to function properly as a remote printer device. Use the following procedure to define fields for the network interface card to make it function as a remote printer: 1. When prompted for the remote system, type INTNETADR so the AS/400 recognizes the device as an IP device. Internet address must be the IP address of the network interface card. [. . . ] In most cases, this set of attributes will be sufficient, but it can be changed either through SMIT or by using the chvirprt command. If you need to make more extensive changes on your printer, see the AIX RISC System/6000 documentation for information. Before you edit the files, be sure that the following daemon is running:
/usr/nic/nic_print /dev/nic/printer_name printfast 10001 &
Use the following procedures to add or change virtual printers: 1. When prompted, enter information for the following questions: · · · · Nodename (host name in the /etc/hosts file) Printer name Unit type Port number - Enter 1 for parallel port 1
Answer y to accept the configuration and n when prompted to configure another printer. [. . . ]
