UNIX/Linux
Local printing is supported on many UNIX and Linux platforms, such as Sun Solaris and Red Hat.
If the drivers CD does not contain any UNIX/Linux printer driver packages, contact the place where you bought the printer
to see if the printer is supported.
Some printer driver packages are available on the drivers CD. The UNIX/Linux
User’s Guide
in each package gives
detailed instructions for installing and using printers in UNIX and Linux environments.
All the printer driver packages support local printing using a parallel connection. The driver package for Sun Solaris
supports USB connections to Sun Ray appliances and Sun workstations.
