The Print Server can work under any Linux-based systems, including Slackware, RedHat, etc, without any problems.

Basically, the Linux's printing system is based on BSD system. Although many commercial Linux systems are available in the market and their commands will vary slightly, depending upon which version is used, the functionality of the Linux-based variants is exactly the same. Following are the outlined procedures (recommended for all users) on Red Hat Linux 7.2/7.3 or later with X-Windowsystem installed.

a.Make sure that the TCP/IP is well configured on your RedHat system, including network interface card's driver and IP-related settings say, IP address, subnet mask, and gateway IP).

b.Log in root.

c.Assign Print Server an IP address. At shell mode:

c.1. arp -s <the IP address you want to assign to the Print Server> < Print Server 's Node ID>

c.2. Execute tftp < Print Server 's IP> get config.txt and quit tftp.

c.3. Edit the config.txt and modify the IP address, subnet mask, and gateway IP. When done, save the config.txt.

c.4. Execute tftp <Print Server 's IP> put config.txt and quit tftp.
