Section 6 - Chapter 2 - Installation

The initial installation requires the file server to be brought down and then back up again. This may be a consideration when you are planning your install.

Depending on your current configuration, the following software may also be needed:

Printer driver installation diskettes. These diskettes are provided with the OS/2 operating system or are available from the printer manufacturer.

LAN Manager or LAN Server installation diskettes.

Note: It is strongly recommended that you make backup copies of the OS2.INI and OS2SYS.INI files before you install the OkiLAN 6100e+. Follow the directions in your OS/2 documentation to back up these files.

Installing the Utilities Software

Two software utilities are provided with the OkiLAN 6100e+: INSTALL and OkiNet for OS/2.

Install

The INSTALL utility copies both software utilities to your OS/2 server and registers the OKI application with the OS2.INI file. You will need to run INSTALL one time only.

OkiNet for OS/2

The OkiNet for OS/2 utility completes the initial installation of the OkiLAN 6100e+. In addition, you can run the utility as needed to modify the configuration of the OkiLAN 6100e+ or to view port information.

Note: The directory where OKI DLL files install, c:\OS2\DLL, must be the first entry in the LIBPATH command located in the CONFIG.SYS file. When you reboot the system, the OS/2 spooler will load the OKI Network Printer Redirector.
