To use printers with the LPD spooling system, you will need to set up both your printer hardware and the LPD software. This document describes two levels of setup:
*
See section Simple Printer Setup to learn how to connect a printer, tell LPD how to communicate with it, and print plain text files to the printer.
*
See section Advanced Printer Setup to learn how to print a variety of special file formats, to print header pages, to print across a network, to control access to printers, and to do printer accounting.

FreeBSD + Brother HL-2070N
There was a discussion last week on the freebsd-questions list about "budget" laser printers. In light of comments from the list and my desire for a printer -- I've grown rather weary of printing via my parents' computers and then waiting for documents to arrive at a rate of 3 pages per minute -- I decided to buy a Brother HL-2070N printer, which I was surprised to find cost less than two hundred (Canadian) dollars, even before the mail-in rebate. So far, I've been generally happy with this printer; however, getting it to work with FreeBSD wasn't an entirely smooth process.
