AXIS axinstall Script

74
Having performed the basic TCP/IP setup procedures as defined earlier in
this manual, you are now able to print in interactive mode using PROS,
LPR, FTP or Reverse Telnet protocols. However, if you want to integrate
the AXIS 540+/AXIS 560 with your host spooler, you can use the Axis
automatic installation script axinstall. The axinstall script is available
from ftp://ftp.axis.com/pub_soft/prt_srv/utility/axinstall/latest/
After executing this script, the printer connected to the print server will
appear as though it is directly connected to the host printer spooler.
If you intend to use the print server in a multi-protocol environment,
refer to the chapters pertaining to the respective operating systems in this
manual.
When the axinstall script has been downloaded to your host, execute the
script with this command:
or
sh axinstall sh ./axinstall
You will be guided through the installation by a step-by-step procedure.
During the installation you will be asked to select a print method; we
suggest you choose LPD or, for more functionality, use the PROS filter or
named pipe methods. Please refer to the following pages if you need
guidance on the choice of print methods.
Note: NLPRng is not supported by axinstall.
(depending on your system).
