Setting Up the UNIX Filters

About UNIX Filters

In the Client Utilities CD-ROM, the following filters for UNIX workstations are included:
net_estbw
This file is a shell script that will be installed in "/usr/lib/lp/model". It contains all the parsing for
the printer specific commands and it generates all the output code. Being a shell script, a system
administrator can modify it if a site requires any custom options or if other components are
installed in non-standard locations.
lpdsend
This is an executable program that is called by net_estbw to send the print file to the system
using the LPD protocol. This program will be installed in "/opt/toshiba/tap/bin".
lpLinux.sh (Linux filter only)
This file is a shell script that simulates the command line functions of lp. After processing the
command line options, the e-STUDIO filter is invoked in the same way as a System V print filter.
This file is installed in "/opt/toshiba/tap/bin". A symbolic link to this file will be installed in the "/
usr/local/bin" directory as lptap.
estbwBackend (AIX filter only)
This is an executable program that is called by the AIX qdaemon. It receives the arguments from
the qdaemon, interrogates it for copy information etc. then calls the queues' copy of net_estbw
to run the print. This program will be installed in "/opt/toshiba/tap/bin".
estbwadd
This file is a shell script that is used to create a printer description. This file will be installed in "/
opt/toshiba/tap/bin". A symbolic link will be installed in the "/bin" directory that will point to the
actual location of this file.
estbwrm
This file is a shell script that is used to remove a printer description. This file will be installed in "/
opt/toshiba/tap/bin". A symbolic link will be installed in the "/bin" directory that will point to the
actual location of this file.
net_estbw.1
This is an input file for the man command that supplies online documentation for the printer spe-
cific options. This file will be installed in "/opt/toshiba/tap/man/man1". A symbolic link will be
installed in the /usr/man/man1 directory that will point to the actual location of this file.
