Setup for UNIX
Before you start:
To establish communication with the TCP/IP network, you must assign an IP address to your AXIS 560/660 Print Server. Refer to Assigning an IP Address, on page 8.
Having performed the basic TCP/IP setup procedures, you are now able to print in interactive mode using FTP or Reverse Telnet protocols. However, if you want to integrate the AXIS 560/660 into your host spooler, you can use the Axis automatic installation script axinstall. This utility software is resident on the AXIS 560/660 and can be downloaded to your host using FTP. It is also provided on the AXIS Online CD in the software\prt_srv\utility\axinstall\latest folder and from the Axis WWW home page at http://www.axis.com/.
Follow the procedure below to download axinstall to your host using FTP:
1. Log in to the AXIS 560/660 by typing:
ftp <host name> or ftp <IP address> in the UNIX shell window.
2.Enter root as the user id and pass as the password.
3.Download the axinstall utility by typing:
get axinstall
Follow the procedure below to install the AXIS 560/660 using the axinstall script:
1.Type the command:
sh axinstall in the UNIX shell window.
2.Follow the instructions that appear when the script is started.
When the AXIS 560/660 is installed, it will appear as it is directly connected to the host printer spooler.
