12.20. Tektronix Phaser Printers

The ifhp filter supports the AppSocket protocol used by Tektronix. You will need a printcap similar to the following:

phaser:
 :sd=/var/spool/lpd/%P
 # need a dummy device for output
 :lp=/dev/null
 # You need to specify the IP address of the printer's network interface
 #  In this example it is 10.0.0.1 - replace with the correct value
 # The filter will actually open the connection.
 :filter=/usr/local/libexec/filters/ifhp
 :ifhp=dev=10.0.0.1%9100,model=tek
