Example:
create directory /usr/spool/output
having in /etc/hosts
192.168.145.1 nod1
127.0.0.1 loc localhost
put to /etc/hosts.lpd
loc
localhost
nod1
and to /etc/printcap
NET:
:rm=192.168.145.202:
:rp=raw:
:sd=/usr/spool/output/lpd:\
(put no spaces after )
Then in /etc/config/lpsrvr you can add queue:
[raw]
ta=local_lpt
co=cat $(spfile) | /usr/ucb/lpr -P NET
a print file
lp -P raw file
This is operational for me, but one problem persists:
Almost everytime when I check filesystem, chkfsys reports
corrupted filesystem on /usr/spool/output/lpd.lock.
In spite of the fact, printing is running normally. (?)

Hello,
I’ve got a problem printing from qnx to a network printer over tcpip. The
printer has it’s own ip-address.
I tried like this:
Build printcap file
start lpd
If trying lpr file then qnx tells me: please start lpd. I did it before.
What’s wrong. It would be a pleasure someone could help me.
Perhaps you can tell me what there must be written in the printcap file and
how to start lpd.
Many thanks
Bettina
