Connect the printer to the network and turn on the power to the printer.
Consult the printer vendor's installation documentation for information about the hardware switches and cabling requirements. Get an IP address and select a name for the printer node. This is equivalent to adding any node to the network.
Follow the printer vendor instructions to add the network printer to a SunOS 5.x system that has an SVR4 LP print spooler.
Use the printer vendor instructions to configure the network printer. These will be specific to the vendor and printer.
Add client access to the new printer.
Now that the printer has been added, create access to the printer for the clients. See "Setting Up a Print Client".
