Linux Installation for ICElp
« on: April 21, 2005, 01:07:41 pm »

I have ice.tcp 4.4 and I am trying to setup Icelp printing. I have used the icelp.scr and icelp1.scr files over to my linux machine but have not been able to successfully install them.

I get a mesage saying that the file are not binary

THanks

What version of linux?
Using CUPS or LPRng?
How old is your PRO CD?
Did you get the icelp.scr and associated files from the CD?

Put a
#!/bin/sh
at the top of the script.

Make the script executable
chmod 755 icelp.scr

You are using lpr or lprng, not cups. You are going to have to mess with adding the script to the linux spooler. We don't have any linux that old here so there is not a lot I can help you with on that end.

You will also need an icelpd binary for linux.
I'll IM you with a url to one.

Check that location that I sent you a message about. It has icelp.scr examples for older linux.

the cat /proc/version gives you the kernel version

cat /etc/issue (which is what you should get when you login) should tell you the linux version.

rpm -qa | grep release

is useful on rpm (like redhat) based systems.
