| 1 | CUPSWIZ - prototype CUPS printer-creation wizard
|
|---|
| 2 | Test release 2
|
|---|
| 3 |
|
|---|
| 4 | Make sure cupsport.exe is either in the current directory or in the PATH.
|
|---|
| 5 |
|
|---|
| 6 | Usage: cupswiz <path-to-cups>
|
|---|
| 7 | (e.g. "cupswiz f:\cups")
|
|---|
| 8 |
|
|---|
| 9 | <path-to-cups> can be omitted if cupswiz.exe is on the same drive as CUPS.
|
|---|
| 10 |
|
|---|
| 11 | Requirements:
|
|---|
| 12 | - CUPS, including ECUPS.DRV and CUPS.PDR, must be installed and working.
|
|---|
| 13 | The CUPS daemon must be running.
|
|---|
| 14 | - CUPS.PDR should have a bldlevel of 1.03 (February 2011) or later. If
|
|---|
| 15 | not, the created WPS printer object will not work properly until the
|
|---|
| 16 | WPS is restarted.
|
|---|
| 17 | - GNU gzip.exe must be installed (somewhere on the PATH).
|
|---|
| 18 | - RINSTPRN.EXE (included with OS/2 MCP/ACP & eComStation, not sure about
|
|---|
| 19 | earlier verions) must also be somewhere on the PATH.
|
|---|
| 20 | - VROBJ.DLL (included in eComStation or available on Hobbes) is required.
|
|---|
| 21 |
|
|---|
| 22 | Current limitations:
|
|---|
| 23 | - The CUPS printer is always created with default job options.
|
|---|
| 24 | - Currently only ECUPS.DRV is supported (not ECUPS-HP.DRV).
|
|---|
| 25 | - The GUI is still somewhat unpolished. All printer models are currently
|
|---|
| 26 | displayed in one massive list (not broken down by manufacturer yet).
|
|---|
| 27 | - If your %TMP% directory has spaces in the pathname, the program will
|
|---|
| 28 | almost certainly fail to work properly. The same applies to your
|
|---|
| 29 | %LOGFILES% directory.
|
|---|
| 30 | - No internationalization support (yet).
|
|---|
| 31 | - No help or documentation.
|
|---|
| 32 | - Probably still has bugs due to my limited testing capabilities.
