CONFIGKS(1M) K-Spool by Xinet (10/14/99 10.1) CONFIGKS(1M)
NAME [Toc] [Back]
configks - configuration program for K-Spool
SYNOPSIS [Toc] [Back]
/usr/etc/appletalk/configks [-a] [-P printer ] [-T type ]
[-Z zone ]
DESCRIPTION [Toc] [Back]
The program configks configures printers on an AppleTalk
network. The flags are defined as follows:
-a look in all zones (default is the local zone)
-P look for devices with this name (default is
LaserWriter)
-T look for this type of printer (default is LaserWriter)
-Z look in this zone (default is local zone)
This program looks for all AppleTalk printers that match the
specified options. It then asks if you want to set up a
spooler for them. It also prompts to see if you want to
configure serial printers.
For each spooler selected, the program prompts you for all
necessary parameters (spool directory, whether you want
accounting, spooler name, etc.) It then creates the spool
directory, creates input and output filters for the printer,
adds the necessary information to
/usr/etc/appletalk/services and /etc/printcap, and then
attempts to print a test page to the printer.
If the program is unable to perform some portion of the
installation, an error message will be printed and the
operation will have to be done manually.
All of the actions of configks(1m) can be undone with the
unconfigks(1m) program.
BUGS [Toc] [Back]
There is minimal error recovery.
