AXIS axinstall script

The axinstall script is an installation and management utility for Axis print servers that supports lpd, ftp, PROS A and PROS B print methods. For more advanced printing functionality, use the PROS filter or named pipe methods.

With this installation script, the printer connected to the print server will appear as though it is directly connected to the host print spooler. If you want to integrate your AXIS 5400+/AXIS 5600+ into your host spooler, you can use the Axis installation script axinstall, or perform a manual integration.

Follow these instructions to download axinstall to your host:

1. Open a Terminal window and log in to the AXIS 5400+/AXIS 5600+ by typing:

ftp <IP address> or ftp <host name>

2. Enter root as the default user id and pass as the default Administrator password.
