Installing the Unix TAR File
Considerations and Limitations
This print model acts only as a filter and not as a complete driver. You
cannot modify the size and order of the printed pages.
The UNIX filters do not support the following engine-supplied
features:
You must have root privileges to install the required files.
Linux uses the lpipc command to send a file to a printer. Since lp is
not supported in all versions of Linux, use the lpipc command
instead.
AIX supports printing using the qdaemon. Invoke this daemon with
the commands lp, lpr, or qprt. To use the ipc1 filter, use either lp
or qprt.
Supplied Components
net_ipc1im8130: This file is a shell script installed in /usr/lib/lp/
model/net_ipc1im8130. It contains the parsing data for the
controller specific commands and generates 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 called by net_ipc1im8130 to
send the print file to the controller using the LPD protocol. This
program is installed in /opt/imagistics/tap/bin/lpdsend.
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 ipc1 filter is invoked in the same way as a System V print
filter. This file is installed in /opt/imagistics/tap/bin/
lpLinux.sh. A symbolic link to this file is installed in the /usr/
local/bin directory as lpipc.
