Network Printing with Tektronix Color Printers
Support for DOS systems
For information on installing Tektronix printers in DOS environments, see the
printer’s CD-ROM. They contain PostScript utility files that can be sent to the
printer for network configuration in DOS environments. They also contain a DOS
application, NWSET, for printer configuration on NetWare networks.
For information on how to use the DOS configuration files, see the README files on
the printer’s CD-ROM. PC users will find the README file for the PostScript utility
files in the UTILS directory; the README file for NWSET is in the NETWARE
directory. (Macintosh users will find the ReadMe file for the PostScript utility files in
the Network Utilities folder).
Tektronix PhaserPrint for UNIX software
For UNIX environments, Tektronix offers PhaserPrint software. PhaserPrint for
UNIX provides fast raster screen copy printing to Tektronix color printers.
PhaserPrint for UNIX also provides a graphical user interface for push-button
control of Tektronix printer features.
PhaserPrint for UNIX is available for these workstations:
■ Sun: SunOS 4.1.4, Solaris 2.3 and 2.4
■ SGI: IRIX 5.2, 5.3, 6.2, 6.3, and 6.4
■ HP 9000 700/800: HP-UX 9.0.5 and 10.2
■ IBM RS/6000: AIX 3.2 and 4.2
■ DECstation: ULTRIX 4.0 and 4.4
■ DEC Alpha AXP: OSF/1 3.0, 3.2, and Digital UNIX 4.0
PhaserPrint for UNIX works with the workstation’s native spooling system to print
PostScript files and raster files in these formats: Sun Raster Format (SRF), xwd, SGI
RGB, HP Starbase, TIFF, PBM, GIF, PCX, and BMP.
Your printer’s CD-ROM contains a demonstration copy of PhaserPrint for UNIX and
an on-line instruction guide in the unix/unixdemo directory. You can also obtain a
demonstration copy at this Tektronix site:
