Printing via Shell Scripts
4-28 Print Server Installation Manual
the print server, the logical printer, and the FTP path must be
edited.
Please read the "Description of Variables" section on page A-4 if
necessary.
Procedure Proceed as follows:
1. Copy the '/etc/printserver/sys5.sh' file into the
'/etc/printserver/interfaces' subdirectory and assign the copy an
arbitrary name:
Syntax: cd /etc/printserver
cp sys5.sh interfaces/<shell script name>
Example: cd /etc/printserver
cp sys5.sh interfaces/my_script
2. Change to the '/etc/printserver/interfaces' subdirectory.
Depending on the current spooler implementation, you may need
to change the access rights for the shell script. Please read the
description of 'lpadmin' in your UNIX user manual.
3. Change the default values of the HOST, PORTS, and FTP
variables in the new shell script.
4.6.2.2. Creating the Printer Device
The print spooler requires a printer device. Due to the fact that the
print server does not need a physical device, a link is made to a
zero device.
