Installing The Unix Tar File - Toshiba GL-1010 Administrator's Manual

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 lptap command to send a file to a printer. Since lp is
not supported in all versions of Linux, use the lptap command
instead.
AIX supports printing using the qdaemon. Invoke this daemon with
the commands lp, lpr, or qprt. To use the GL filter, use either lp or
qprt.
Supplied Components
Many of the files described in this section vary slightly between the
GL-1010 and the GL-1020 controllers. Make sure you select the correct
files and place them in the correct directories for the appropriate
controller.
net_gl10X0: This file is a shell script installed in /usr/lib/lp/
model/net_gl10X0. 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_gl10X0 to
send the print file to the controller using the LPD protocol. This
program is installed in /opt/toshiba/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 GL filter is invoked in the same way as a System V print
