mkbsdnetpr(1M)

NAME
     mkbsdnetpr - provide access to a remote printer using the BSD printing
     protocols

SYNOPSIS
     mkbsdnetpr [<local printer name>] [<remote host>] [<remote printer name>]

DESCRIPTION
     mkbsdnetpr provides access on a local machine to a printer that is
     connected to a networked remote machine.  The BSD printing protocols are
     used to communicate with the remote machine. mkbsdnetpr can be run either
     interactively or in batch mode.

     mkbsdnetpr will run interactively if any or all of its command line
     arguments have not been specified.  mkbsdnetpr will prompt for any
     missing command line arguments.

     local printer name is the name you wish to give the printer on your
     machine (see lpadmin (1M)). (local printer name is setup using the lp
     spooler on the SGI).  remote host is the name of the machine that has the
     printer physically attached to it.  Note that this machine must be
     accessible over the network.  remote printer name is the name of the
     printer on the remote machine.

     After running this program, you might consider making this printer the
     default printer using lpadmin(1M).  This command is only usable by the
     system administrator.

NOTE
     Network printing to a remote system is achieved by submitting the print
     job to the local lp print spooler.  The interface file for the local
     printer submits the print job to the remote printer using the
     netprint(1M) utility.

     Make sure that you have access to the remote system.  Typically, this is
     done by adding an entry for the local system to the /etc/hosts.equiv or
     /etc/hosts.lpd file on the remote system.
