Configuring KP

The following procedure outlines the steps necessary to configure a system printer for use with Konica Print Utility. Please note that you must have lp or root privileges to configure a printer.

1.Add a new printer to your UNIX/LINUX system using the instructions given in your KP distribution’s readme file.

2.Configure your new printer by using the kpconfig command. It will prompt you for the printer that you would like configure. Select the printer you have just added.

3.You will be asked to pick a PPD file that matches your printer. The list of PPD files installed is displayed.

4.You will be asked whether you want a Ctrl-D appended to each print job. Ctrl-D is the "end of job" command and it is not harmful to always send it. It is optional, as there are rare cases in which it may cause problems. You should choose to append Ctrl-D, unless you have a reason not too.

5.Finally, you will be prompted for "installable options." These are printer- specific options, which may be installed. Select the options that are installed on your printer.
