ON THE PC:
---------
Set up the PC to enable "File and Print Sharing". This is done by using the
"network" icon in the "Control Panel" on the PC. This is typically done by a
system administrator at the Customer site.
ON THE MV SERVER:
----------------
After AFPS is installed and configured, invoke "scoadmin" at the command line
as root.
Access the "Printers" menu option.
Choose the "Printer Manager" sub-menu.
Once the "Printer Manager" screen comes up, add a New, Remote, Windows printer
using the "Printer" menu option.
1. Give the name that you wish to give
2. choose "passthrough" as a model
3. In the space for "Windows Client", put in the name of the PC
4. Select the "shared" printers to choose the right printer in "Share Name"
5. DO NOT PUT A PASSWORD
This will create the printer and make it available to all unix users.
Additional:
For Windows Printers, you need to manually enable the "nobanner" option to
printers above. To do that, run the following command as "root" at the UNIX
prompt:
/usr/lib/lpadmin -p <printer> -o nobanner
where:
<printer> is the name you gave in step 1. above and
make sure that you put in the full path of the command
since /usr/lib is not in the default path setting for "root"
