Downloading files from the Tektronix ftp server

The utility files included on the printer's CD-ROM let you set up the printer from UNIX and VMS workstations to select between media trays, print quality modes, color correction modes and other features. If you don't have the means to transfer these files from the CD-ROM, you can request files from the Tektronix anonymous ftp server.

If you can exchange electronic mail with other Internet sites, you can access the Tektronix ftp server. From this server you can retrieve driver and utility files and color printer information.

To log onto the Tektronix ftp server and download utility files, follow these steps:

  1. Type the following at the system prompt, and press the Return key:

    ftp ftp.tek.com

    The system responds:

    Name (ftp.tek.com:<login name>) :

  2. Type anonymous and press the Return key.

    The system responds:

    Guest login ok, send your complete e-mail address as password.

  3. Enter your e-mail address and press the Return key.

  4. Change directories to your printer-specific directory:

    cd UNIX

  5. Connect to the directory that matches your platform.

  6. To download the utility files, type the following command:

    mget *

    The system prompts you for each file in the directory, to which you respond y (yes) or n (no).

  7. To exit the ftp session, type quit or bye; then press the Return key.
