Solaris OS

Printer on local host

In /vnmr/devicenames file add a record

##############################
Name    lj_printer
Use     Printer
Type    PS_AR
Host    <hostname>
Port    /dev/ecpp0
Baud    
Shared  No
##############################
Name    lj_plotter
Use     Plotter
Type    PS_AR
Host    <hostname>
Port    /dev/ecpp0
Baud    
Shared  No

Where <hostname> should be replaced with the name of host computer

In vnmr command line type:

printer="lj_printer"
plotter="lj_plotter"

The last two commands should be typed for each user (Is there a way around this?)

Of course, names of printer and plotter don't have to be "lj_printer" and "lj_plotter".
