Installing the UNIX printer driver package

Installation procedure is common for all variants of UNIX OS mentioned (See "UNIX" on page 3).

1.From the Samsung website, download and unpack the UNIX Printer Driver package to your computer.

2.Acquire root privileges.

su -

3.Copy appropriate driver archive to the target UNIX computer. See administration guide of your UNIX OS for details.

4.Unpack the UNIX printer driver package archive.

For example, on IBM AIX use the following commands.

cd /tmp

gzip –dc /cdrom/unix/packages/aix_power/aix_power.tar.gz tar –xvf

The “binaries” folder consists of binz, install, share files and folders 5.Copy the “binaries” folder to any local folder.

6.Change to the driver’s “binaries” directory.

cd aix_power/binaries

7.Run the install script.

./install

install is the installer script file which is used to install or uninstall the UNIX Printer Driver package.

Use “chmod 755 install” command to give the permission to the installer script.

8.Execute the “. /install –c command to verify install results.

9.Run ‘installprinter’ from the command line. This will bring up the Add Printer Wizard window. Setup the printer in this window referring the procedure next.

On some UNIX OS, for example on Solaris 10 just added printer may not be enabled and/or may not accept jobs. In this case run the following two commands on the root terminal:

accept <printer_name> enable <printer_name>

Uninstalling the printer driver package

The uninstalling printer utility should be used to delete the printer installed in the system.

a)Run “uninstallprinter” command from the terminal.

It will open the Uninstall Printer Wizard

The installed printers are listed in the drop-down list b)Select the printer to be deleted.

c)Click Delete to delete the printer from the system.

d)Execute the “. /install –d command to uninstall the whole package.

e)To verify uninstall results, execute the “. /install –c command. To reinstall it again, use the command “. /install” to reinstall the binaries.

Setting up the printer

6.Type the IP address or DNS name of the printer in the Device textbox for network-connected printers. On IBM AIX with jetdirect Queue type only DNS name is possible, numeric IP address is not allowed.

7.Queue type shows the connection as lpd or jetdirect in the corresponding list box. Additionally usb type is available on Sun Solaris OS.

8.Select Copies to set the number of copies.

IPv6 Configuration

TCP/IPv6 is supported properly only in Windows Vista or higher.

If the IPv6 network seems to not be working, set all the network setting to the factory defaults and try again (See "Restoring factory default settings using SyncThru™ Web Service" on page 3).

To use the IPv6 network environment, follow the next procedure to use the IPv6 address:

1.Connect your machine to the network with a network cable.

2.Turn on the machine.

3.Print a Network Configuration Report from the machine’s control panel that will check IPv6 addresses.

a)Press Menu on the control panel.

b)Press the up/down arrow to highlight Network and press OK.

c)Press the up/down arrow to highlight Network Info. and press OK.

4.Select Start > Control Panel > Hardware and Sound > Printers > Add Printer.
