Setup for UNIX

Before you start:
To establish communication with the TCP/IP network, you must assign an IP address to your AXIS
540/640 Print Server. Refer to Assigning an IP Address, on page 8.
Having performed the basic TCP/IP setup procedures, you are now able to print in
interactive mode using FTP or Reverse Telnet protocols. However, if you want to
integrate the AXIS 540/640 into your host spooler, you can use the Axis automatic
installation script axinstall. This utility software is resident on the AXIS 540/640 and
can be downloaded to your host using FTP. It is also provided on the AXIS Online
CD in the software\prt_srv\utility\axinstall\latest folder and from the Axis WWW
home page at http://www.axis.com/.

1. Log in to the AXIS 540/640 by typing:
