Linux</a></h1>
<p>There is no universal way to install <b class=
"APPLICATION">LPRng</b> cleanly on all of the different Linux
systems. The major difficulty is the fragmentation in the
various libraries, location of files, and system dependencies.
If the <b class="APPLICATION">LPRng</b> installation procedure
does not install the software correctly, please use the
following remedial steps.</p>
<ol type="1">
<li>
<p>Check the <b class="APPLICATION">LPRng</b> web site
<a href="http://www.lprng.com" target=
"_top">http://www.lprng.com</a> and see if there is a Linux
Release RPM or other binary distribution for your version
of Linux. If not, then you will have to do a source
install.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Obtain the source distribution and follow the
instructions outlined in other sections to compile and
install the software. Use the following configuration
options which correspond to Linux:</p>
<div class="INFORMALEXAMPLE">
<a name="AEN1531" id="AEN1531"></a>
<pre class="SCREEN">
<samp class="PROMPT">h4: {72} # </samp><kbd class=
"USERINPUT">./configure --prefix=/usr \
--sysconfdir=/etc --mandir=/usr/share/man</kbd>
<samp class="PROMPT">h4: {73} # </samp><kbd class=
"USERINPUT">make clean all install</kbd>
<samp class="PROMPT">h4: {74} # </samp><kbd class=
"USERINPUT">checkpc -f</kbd>
</pre>
</div>
</li>
<li>
<p>You may need to modify your existing printcap file by
adding the <code class="OPTION">:bkf</code> flag as shown
below, or replace the entries with other filters.</p>
<div class="INFORMALEXAMPLE">
<a name="AEN1542" id="AEN1542"></a>
<pre class="SCREEN">
lp:\
:if=/usr/local/libexec/lpr/hplaserjet3:\
:bkf:\ # added to the printcap by hand
:...
</pre>
</div>
</li>
<li>
<p>Test the system by printing a file. If this does not
work, then you will have to determine if the problem is in
the print spooling software or in the filter. See the
section on <b class="APPLICATION">ifhp</b> for directions
on how to replace the vendor supplied filters with
<b class="APPLICATION">ifhp</b>.</p>
