NAME

lp_server - export a printer by simulation a HP JetDirect interface

SYNOPSIS

lp_server [-n port] [-w] [-s stty_options] [-d device] [-r remote_list]

DESCRIPTION

The lp_server program will bind to the port specified by the -n option, and wait for a TCP/IP connection. It will then open the output device (write only if -w is specified), applying the specified set of stty options if the device is a serial port. It then copies the TCP/IP output to the device output, and copying the device output to the TCP/IP input.

The intended use for lp_server is to allow a serial or parallel printer to be made available to PC workstations as well as to one or more LPRng servers.

OPTIONS

The lp_server printer recognizes the following options provided by the spooler.
-d device
The output device.
-n port
port to use for connections. Default is 9100.
-w
Open the output device write only. Default is read/write.
-t stty_options
A list of stty options to be applied to the device after opening if it is a serial port.
-r remote_list
A list of host names or IP addresses and masks from which connections are allowed. For example, -r 130.191.10.30/24,dickory would allow connections from the subnet 130.191.10.0 (24 bit netmask) and the host dickory.

EXAMPLES

lp_server -d /dev/lp -w

Opens the parallel port write only.

lp_server -d /dev/ttya
   -t "38400 -echo -crmod -raw -oddp -evenp ixon pass8 -ixany cbreak"

Opens the serial port /dev/ttya, and sets the various serial port options.

STTY_OPTIONS

Due to the differences between implementations of UNIX, there are several sets of stty options supported. Systems using the sgtty tty manipulation interface may use the following stty(1) options:
