Setup for UNIX

Before you start:

Having performed the basic TCP/IP setup procedures, you are now able to print in
interactive mode using FTP or Reverse Telnet protocols. However, if you want to
integrate the AXIS 560/660 into your host spooler, you can use the Axis automatic
installation script axinstall. This utility software is resident on the AXIS 560/660 and
can be downloaded to your host using FTP. It is also provided on the AXIS Online
CD in the software\prt_srv\utility\axinstall\latest folder and from the Axis WWW
home page at http://www.axis.com/.

Follow the procedure below to download axinstall to your host using FTP:

1. Log in to the AXIS 560/660 by typing:

ftp <host name>

or

ftp <IP address>

in the UNIX shell window.

2. Enter

root

as the user id and

pass

as the password.

3. Download the axinstall utility by typing:

get axinstall

Follow the procedure below to install the AXIS 560/660 using the axinstall script:

1. Type the command:

sh axinstall

in the UNIX shell window.

2. Follow the instructions that appear when the script is started.

When the AXIS 560/660 is installed, it will appear as it is directly connected to the
host printer spooler.

To establish communication with the TCP/IP network, you must assign an IP address to your AXIS
560/660 Print Server. Refer to Assigning an IP Address, on page 8.
