3. _C_h_a_n_g_e_s__a_n_d__A_d_d_i_t_i_o_n_s
+o _l_p_s_c_h_e_d(1M) (the System V printing daemon) will now
accept print jobs from _l_p_d(1M) (the BSD printing
daemon) running on a remote system. A bug in version
1.3 of Printing Tools prevented this from working with
lpd clients that sent the data file(s) before the
control file (see RFC 1179 for information on the lpd
protocol). (Many implementations of the BSD printing
system that run on PCs send the data files first.) This
bug has been fixed. NOTE: _l_p_s_c_h_e_d(1M) will not accept
print jobs from _l_p_d running on the local system.
+o Remote printing to BSD printers (on remote computer
systems running _l_p_d(1m)) is supported from the lp
spooler starting with version 1.3 of the Printing Tools
(IRIX 5.3 runs version 1.3 of the Printing Tools; IRIX
6.2 runs version 1.4). Remote BSD printers can be
installed using _p_r_i_n_t_e_r_s(1M), the graphical Printer
Manager, by typing the host name and remote printer
name into the "Add Printer" dialog. Note that printers
that have a direct connection to the network and which
support lpd will probably not configure correctly using
the _p_r_i_n_t_e_r_s(1M) tool. See the next section _K_n_o_w_n
_P_r_o_b_l_e_m_s _a_n_d _W_o_r_k_a_r_o_u_n_d_s for details.
+o A bug (number 281990) that prevented the OPTIONS string
in lp model files from being parsed correctly has been
fixed.
