Linux Driver Installation

2. Install the Ghostscript.

3. Install setup script.

Note: Ghostscript may already be installed in your Linux machine. To support Samsung printer PrinThru, you must update the ghostscript. If you are not sure whether the ghostscript is already installed in your machine, use the command: >rpm -q ghostscript (You can see the version of the ghostscript currently installed in your machine by this command.)

To update the ghostscript:

1Change to the directory where the ghostscript is in by typing in:

>cd/mnt/cdrom/linux/gs5.XX (where /mnt/cdrom is the CD-ROM directory you have mounted at step 1 and XX is the version of the ghostscript to be installed, 10 or 50.)

2Delete the ghostscript currently installed in your machine by typing in:

/mnt/cdrom/linux/gs5.XX>rpm -e --nodeps ghostscript

3Install the ghostscript which is supplied in the Samsung ML-4500 CD-ROM by typing in:

/mnt/cdrom/linux/gs5.XX/rpm -ivh ghostscript - 5.XX-xx.i386.rpm

4When # appears in the screen and the installation is completed, the ghostscript is successfully updated. To make sure, type in:

/mnt/cdrom/linux/gs5.XX/rpm -q ghostscript

If ‘ghostscript-5.XX-xx’ message appears, the installation is successfully completed.

For details on installing the setup script, refer to the /cdrom/linux/install/readme.txt file.

Add the driver to the printer list by typing in: /cdrom/linux/install>install.sh (or) /cdrom/linux/install>./install.sh (if the path of the current working directly is not determined.)
