Set up and attach a print queue
The final step is done using the axinstall script, which is up-loaded from 
the NPS 530/532 to your host using FTP. You don’t need any technical 
knowledge about your Unix system; axinstall will automatically detect 
your system’s characteristics, and guide you through the setup procedure.
Below is a list of Unix systems that are supported by axinstall:
If your particular system isn’t listed, axinstall tries to use one of the 
generic Unix systems (BSD, SYS V R3 or SYS V R4). If axinstall fails to 
recognize your system, complete the setup manually as described in the 
Axis NPS Print Server Technical Reference.
Up-load axinstall 1. Log in to the NPS 530/532 with the command ftp <host name>, 
where host name is the name assigned in your system host table (e.g. 
salesdept). You will be prompted for user id and password. Enter root as 
user id, and pass as password. 
2. Up-load the script using the command get axinstall.
3. Log out using quit, bye or exit (depending on your FTP version).
