3. Go to or create the directory in which you want to install the software. For
example:
mkdir /usr/PSC_install
Note: If you already have a EcoLAN 1000E printer at your site and you are now install-
ing another one, delete the files in the installation directory (not /usr/nic). If these
files remain, they can prevent the installation of a subsequent print server.
4. Use the tar command to load the software from the diskette. Choose your UNIX
version from the example from the following table, or if not shown, consult the
man page for your system:
UNIX Version
BSD/ULTRIX/AIX/SCO

System V

System V/Solaris 2.3
Note: The device name varies depending on the computer and its peripheral
designations. The first BSD floppy device is often called rfd0.
5. After performing the tar, the system will display a list of EcoLAN 1000E files
copied by the tar. At this point, go to the specific section for your system for
instructions on running the installation script.

7.3.3.2Script Selection of Filters

There will be certain options in executing the script for various systems.
One of the questions posed by the install script is whether the printer is a PostScript
printer. If you answered no to this question, the install script uses an input filter
(infilter) that supplies CR/LF translation to print ASCII files on a PCL printer. If you
answered yes to this question, your printcap file will reference psfilter which offers
easy ASCII-to-PostScript conversion. Normal PostScript format files are not affected.
Proprietary and public domain filters are available for broader filtering capabilities.
Example
tar -xvf/dev/rfd0
tar -xvf/dev/rdsk/f13ht
tar -xvf/dev/rdiskette
