Unix
You will need root privileges for the configuration.
1. Find an unused Internet address (IP address) and choose a unique
host name for your NPS 650.
2. Add the NPS 650 IP address and host name to your system host
table by appending the following line to the /etc/hosts file:
<IP address>
Example: (Use the IP address and host name from step 1.)
192.36.253.96
3. Update your alias name data bases (YP/NIS).
Example: (The commands may be different on your system.)
> cd /var/yp
> make
4. Send the IP address to the print server. The node address is your
NPS 650 serial number divided into six groups of two digits each,
using ':' to separate the groups. (See the example below.)
arp -s <host name> <node address> temp
ping <host name>
Example: (Use the host name from step 1.)
arp -s salesdept 00:02:31:48:00:61 temp
ping salesdept
Note: The arp command syntax may differ between Unix
systems. You may also use rarp or bootp to set the IP address, see
the User's Manual.
5. Log in to the NPS 650 and up-load the axinstall script:
> ftp <host name>
Name (salesdept:thomas): root
Password: pass
ftp> get axinstall
ftp> bye
Example: (Use the host name from step 1.)
ftp salesdept
6. Execute the script:
> sh axinstall
The directions on the screen will guide you through the
installation of LPD, FTP or PROS on your Unix system.
<host name>
salesdept
