APPENDIX A

Planning Your Print Setup

In this appendix, you will ﬁnd information that will help you with your print setup

including the advantages and disadvantages of your various conﬁguration options.

Table 11: Conﬁguration Considerations

Setting Advantages Disadvantages

Port Used:

Parallel ports High speed and IEEE 1284-I

compliant.

Need bi-directional printer if using

1284-I capabilities.

Serial ports Bi-directional. Allows connec-

tion of alternate device, such as

modem.

Lower throughput than parallel.

TCP/IP Print Methods:

lpd communica-

tions

Print without an interface ﬁle. No

host software required and easy

setup.

Not available on all UNIX systems.

Output processing must be done on

the Print Server, not on the host.

rsh/rcmd/remsh

communications

Available on most UNIX systems.

Allows for processing on the host

to improve unit’s performance.

Requires an interface ﬁle on a BSD

system (System V hosts need one

anyways).

npd communica-

tions

Allows bi-directional communi-

cation. Uses standard UNIX

device interface.

Requires host software. npd may

have to be compiled for your system.

Novell Print Methods:

PSERVER Faster print process. Replaces a

dedicated workstation or frees up

ﬁle server resources.

Takes up a NetWare user license.

Requires bindery emulation if using

NetWare 4.
