Configuring the SGD Host to Accept Remote Print Requests

To be able to direct print jobs from an application server to a client device, the SGD host must be configured to accept remote print requests. How you do this varies for each platform. Check your System Administration documentation for information about this.

For example, if you are using lpd on Linux systems, you must add an entry in the /etc/hosts.equiv or /etc/hosts.lpd file (if available) for each application server that might send a print request. After making these changes, remember to restart the LPD daemon.

Note For Windows applications that use the Citrix ICA Windows protocol, the entry in /etc/hosts.equiv is for the UNIX server running the ICA client.
