Printer Configuration Solaris

Edit /etc/printers.conf file to add all the printers whose queue will be managed by the server.

Eg:

/etc/printers.conf ::
<Printer-name>:\
:bsdaddr=<server-name>,<Printer-Destination>,Solaris:

To start the service use /etc/init.d/lp start

This starts the lpsched process. (For solaris 10 use svcadm enable print/server)
