Predefined printers Configuring Xprint V7.0
6.3.2 Extending the list of predefined printers
If you need to configure a non-predefined printer type frequently in Xprint V7.0,
you can enter this printer type in the
/var/spool/Xprint/config/data/conf_dev file with the corresponding
default values. This allows you to configure printers of this type with the
xpconf_dev command.
By default you require system administrator privileges to be able to edit this file.
The file consists of a number of lines, each of which corresponds to one entry.
The entries could read as follows:
SNI-4007 ! EPSON-LQ ! EPSON-LQ ! NONE ! 9600 ! 8 ! XON ! N !
SERIAL !
SNI-4009 ! EPSON-FX ! EPSON-FX ! NONE ! 9600 ! 8 ! ETX ! N !
SERIAL !
SNI-4009 ! PROPRINTER ! PROPRINTER ! NONE ! 9600 ! 8 ! XON ! N !
SERIAL !
SNI-4010 ! EPSON-LQ ! EPSON-LQ ! NONE ! 9600 ! 8 ! XON ! N !
SERIAL !
SNI-4011 ! ECMA-9097 ! E-9097 ! NONE ! 9600 ! 8 ! XON ! Y !
SERIAL ! ( users only).
Each entry consists of nine fields which are separated by the exclamation
mark !. The individual fields have the following meanings:
Field Meaning
1 Printer type - the name under which the printer can be selected. For
new entries any name can be used.
2 Emulation - if a printer supports more than one emulation, a separate
entry with the same printer type and a different emulation should be
specified for each different emulation.
3 PCL - here, the name of the PCL suitable for the printer type and
emulation is specified. If this PCL is not yet defined in the Xprint V7.0
configuration, xpconf_dev will add it.
4 Parity - for a connection via a serial interface, the type of parity bit
must be specified here. Possible values are ODD, EVEN and NONE.
5 Baud rate - for a connection via a serial interface, the baud rate of the
connection is specified here.
