UNIX Host Software              
                        Installation
                        ============


This readme file describes how to install the UNIX Host
Software from CD-ROM.

>> Note: QMS provides UNIX Host Software in several
   different media formats. If you require the UNIX Host
   Software on some media other than CD-ROM, contact your 
   QMS vendor for pricing and ordering. 

   You can also download UNIX Host Software via our World 
   Wide Web Server at http:/www.qms.com, our Bulletin Board 
   at (334) 633-3632, or CompuServe at go qmsprint.



Installation
------------

1 Insert the CD-ROM in your CD-ROM drive.

   >> Note: Some drives require that the disk be placed in
      a caddy before being inserted in the drive. Check your
      CD-ROM drive documentation for information.  Also, it
      takes a few seconds for the automounter to detect the
      CD.

 2 Logon the UNIX system as root.

 3 Type the following command to go to the root directory:

      cd / 

 4 If you are using a Solaris system, skip to step 6.

   If you are using a SunOS system and already have a 
   directory on the system named cdrom, skip to step 5.

   If you are using a SunOS system and don't have a 
   directory on the system named cdrom, type the following 
   command to make one:

      mkdir /cdrom

 5 On SunOS systems mount the CD-ROM file system:

      mount -r -t hsfs device_filename /cdrom

   For device_filename substitute the complete pathname of
   the device associated with the CD-ROM drive. On SunOS
   systems, device_filename is usually /dev/sr0. If it isn't,
   check your SunOS system documentation.

 6 Verify that the CD-ROM file system has been mounted by
   listing the contents of the directory:

      Solaris systems      Type   ls /cdrom/qms
      SunOS systems        Type   ls /cdrom

   The directory contains several subdirectories, including
   unix.
 
 7 Change to the directory in which you want the UNIX Host 
   Software to be installed.

 8 Extract the files from the CD-ROM: 

      tar xvf /cdrom/unix/host_sw/hs_tar 

   The utilities are installed in a directory named QMSoft 
   in the current directory.

 9 Unmount the CD-ROM file system: 

      umount device_filename

   For device_filename, substitute the complete pathname of 
   the device file associated with the CD-ROM drive.

10 Change to the newly created QMSoft directory: 

      cd QMSoft

11 Run the Qinstall installation utility:

      ./Qinstall

12 Follow the instructions on the screen. When the 
   installation is complete, the following message displays:

      QMS UNIX Host Software installation complete 

13 Copy the addprt and qpr utilities and their associated 
   manual pages to standard directories. For example, 

      cp addprt /usr/bin
      cp qpr /usr/bin
      cp man/addprt.1 /usr/man/man1
      cp man/qpr.1 /usr/man/man1

14 If you're using SNMP to manage your network using SunNet 
   Manager, copy the appropriate files to the SunNet Manager
   agents directory. 

   See your SunNet Manager documentation for more 
   information. 

15 Update the printer's Internet name and address in the 
   /etc/hosts file. 

16 Run the QMS addprt utility by typing 

      addprt

17 Follow the instructions on the screen.
