Printing via Shell Scripts
Print Server Installation Manual 4-25
4.6 Printing via Shell Scripts
You should only print via shell scripts if you are not able to print
via LPD protocols or direct TCP/IP ports.
The following shell scripts are available:
• aix.sh (for AIX systems with 'qdaemon' spooler)
• bsd.sh (for BSD systems with 'lpd' spooler)
• sys5.sh (for System V with 'lpsched' spooler)
If you wish to print via shell scripts, they must first be transferred
from the print server and then adapted to the respective UNIX
network.
Log Files in Case of
Error The complete print job process is stored in a log file named after
the printer and with the extension '.last' located in the '/tmp'
directory. This file contains the starting time of the print job, the
parameters with which the printer interface was activated, all FTP
command outputs, and so on. In case of error, this information
may indicate the cause of the error.
The following instructions describe only the most fundamental
procedures for the corresponding shell scripts. Depending on your
UNIX system, the individual commands may deviate from the
description. Please read the description in your UNIX user manual
if necessary.
Requirements Before installation, make sure that:
! The IP address has been saved in the print server.
! The host name has been assigned to the IP address.
! The print server is connected, and the printer is turned on.
