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
