6.2.3.1 Loading the Software
The following procedures are only necessary when using the sup-
plied host-based lpr capability. Loading the software is not neces-
sary if printer-based lpr is used.
1. Log in as superuser (root) to the system that spools directly to
the print server.
2. Insert the CD-ROM in the host drive.
3. Go to or create the directory in which you want to install the
software. For example:
#mkdir /usr/MLT_install
Note
4. Use the tar command to load the software from the CD-ROM.
5. After performing the tar, the system will display a list of NIC
files copied by the tar. At this point, go to the specific section
for your system for instructions on running the installation
script.
6.2.3.2 Script Selection of Filters
There will be certain options in executing the script for various sys-
tems.
One of the questions posed by the install script is whether the printer
is a PostScript printer. If you answered no to this question, the install
script uses an input filter (infilter) that supplies CR/LF translation to
print ASCII files on a PCL printer. If you answered yes to this ques-
tion, your printcap file will reference psfilter which offers easy
ASCII-to-PostScript conversion. Normal PostScript format files are
not affected. Proprietary and public domain filters are available for
broader filtering capabilities.
• If you already have a NIC at your site and you are now installing
another one, delete the files in the installation directory (not /usr/
nic). If these files remain, they can prevent the installation of a sub-
sequent print server.
