Configuring the InfoPrint Manager for Linux Server to support shared files

If you have installed Samba for Linux and you use Submit Express from Microsoft Windows workstations, you can configure InfoPrint Manager on your Linux system with user access and a shared directory that InfoPrint Manager will use for saving processed or rasterized files. Where applicable, this directory is also used when users preview Postscript files from the InfoPrint Manager Submit application.

To configure:

  1. Start the InfoPrint Manager Management Interface (IPMMI), go to Applications ⇒ InfoPrint Manager ⇒ Management Interface on RedHat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) or Computer ⇒ More Applications ⇒ InfoPrint Manager ⇒ Management Interface on SUSE Linux Enterprise Server (SLES).
  2. Click Options.
  3. Select Enable Clients Shared File System.
  4. Specify the Volume group for /ipdata and the Space for /ipdata (Mbytes).
  5. Now, you need to configure the Submit client (see Configuring the InfoPrint Submit Express client for InfoPrint Manager for AIX, InfoPrint Manager for Linux, and InfoPrint Manager for Windows).
