NAME
       termprinter_tcp termprinter_telnet, termprinter_3com3.3, dg_annex,
       datability - lp interface scripts to Terminal Server printers

SYNOPSIS
       /usr/lib/lp/model/termprinter_tcp

DESCRIPTION
       The termprinter interface scripts are used to print files to a
       printer connected to a Terminal Server.  Several termprinter scripts
       are available depending on your Terminal Server model.

       The termprinter scripts generate the printer initialization
       sequences, the banner page and filtered file output to a temporary
       file.  This file is then sent to the terminal server using the
       /usr/lib/lp/bin/lp.termprinter interface program.

       The termprinter scripts use 2 environment variables to determine the
       destination address of the printer.  The DG_NETWORK_HOST variable
       contains the host name found in the hosts database (e.g.  /etc/hosts
       or YP) for the terminal server.  The DG_NETWORK_PORT variable
       identifies the port number or network services alias name.  These
       variables are setup by lpsched and passed to the lp.termprinter
       program by the termprinter script.

       To configure a printer on a terminal server, you should use the
       sysadm(1M) utility and select the "Remote networked printer device"
       connection type.  Sysadm will prompt you for the interface script,
       host name and port number.  You can also use the lpadmin(1M) command
       with the -Uhost%port option to assign the host name and port number.

       Refer to the respective Terminal Server Release Notice for further
       information.
