Adapting the Shell Script
Creating the Printer Device
Entering the Printer into the Spooler System
Enabling the Printer
4.6.4.1. Adapting the Shell Script
The shell script must be adapted to your network. A copy of the
shell script is therefore created and saved in the
'/etc/printserver/interfaces' directory. After that, the shell script is
adapted to your system. This basically means that the host name of
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/aix.sh' file into the
'/etc/printserver/interfaces' subdirectory and assign the copy an
arbitrary name:
Syntax: cd /etc/printserver
cp aix.sh interfaces/<shell script name>
Example: cd /etc/printserver
cp aix.sh interfaces/my_script
2. Change to the '/etc/printserver/interfaces' subdirectory.
