UNIX Section 8: Setting Up - UNIX LPD/LPR Printing The Line Printer Daemon, a protocol for transferring print jobs between hosts, is a convenient method for printing on UNIX systems. You can also install the AXIS 1440 as a remote queue in System V, or you can add it as a remote printer on BSD systems by editing the rm and rp parameters in the /etc/printcap file. The axinstall installation script The axinstall script installs LPR print queues on your UNIX system. You can use the interrupt keys to stop axinstall at any time, and an installation log will be saved to a file. Setup Overview To use the axinstall script to set up your UNIX system, you must complete the following steps: • Download the axinstall script from EPSON's Home Page at http://www.epson.com/, or Copy the script from Axis Utilities disk 1 to your hard drive. • Create an LPR print queue on your UNIX system using axinstall. • Use your host's text editor to edit the UNIX print queue description in the printcap file. Creating an LPR Print Queue Follow these steps to create an LPR print queue on your UNIX system: 1. Enter sh axinstall on the command line to start axinstall. 2. Press Enter when the program asks if you want to continue. The program then identifies your host UNIX system and asks you to verify that the information is correct.
