Quick Beginnings

Printing the PostScript Books

If you prefer to have printed copies of the manuals, you can uncompress and print PostScript versions as follows.

On UNIX systems:

Use the instructions in "Step 3. Mounting the CD-ROM" to mount the CD-ROM.
Change to /cdrom/doc/%L/ps directory on the CD-ROM, where /cdrom is the mount point of the CD-ROM and %L is the name of the desired locale. The manuals will be installed in the previously-mentioned directory with file names ending with .ps.Z.
Uncompress and print the manual you require using the command for UNIX platforms:
- For AIX:
```
   zcat filename | qprt -P PSPrinter_queue
 
```
- For HP-UX or Solaris:
```
   zcat filename | lp -d PSPrinter_queue
 
```
where filename is the name of the full path name and extension of the compressed PostScript file and PSprinter_queue is the name of the PostScript printer queue.
For example, to print the English version of Quick Beginnings for UNIX on AIX, you can use the following command:
```
   zcat /cdrom/doc/en/ps/db2ixe50.ps.Z | qprt -P ps1
 
```

Specify the full-path name for the file you intend to print.
