iPrint Driver Copy Script for Migrating iPrint NetWare Drivers to OES Linux

0 Likes
The iPrint Driver Copy script copies printer drivers from a NetWare Broker (or multiple Brokers) to a Linux Driver Store.

Platforms Supported:



OES1 and OES2 (32 and 64 bit)

Installation Instructions:




  1. Download the iprint-driver-copy-1.0.tgz file.


  • Open a Terminal window and type “su”.


  • Enter root’s password.


  • Extract the script from the tarball.

    #tar –xzvf iprint-driver-copy-1.0.tgz


  • Make the script executable.

    #chmod 755 iprint-driver-copy-1.0.sh


  • Copy the NetWare resdir directory (sys:\ndps\resdir\) to the Linux server's tmp directory.



  • Run the driver copy script for each desktop OS

    #./iprint-driver-copy-1.0.sh -p /directory/ -r

    Ex: ./iprint-driver-copy-1.0.sh -p /tmp/resdir/ENGLISH/Prndrv/winXP -r



    Note: If the -r switch is not used, the Driver Store will need to be manually restarted.



Note: Using a -h will display other parameter options to make the process more automated.
