Installing and Printing on Solaris 2.x
1.
Run the Installation script by typing: nicinst. Once
the operating system has been identified, the script
downloads the files for your particular system, to the
/usr/nic directory, and prompts you for information
as needed.
2.
Type
cp /usr/spool/lp/model/standard
/usr/nic/port1_interface
note:
Use of this default interface in most cases will
suffice for generic or routine printing of most PCL and
ASCII files. To use a printer specific interface other than
the default interface script (named standard), you must
have a copy of that printer interface edited and installed
in the /usr/nic directory.
Next, you will need to edit the printer interface program
you created.
3.
Type
cd /usr/nic and using an editor, open and edit the
port1_interface file.

For further explanation of these and the statement
above, refer to the System 5 Release 4 System
