Installation and usage
----------------------
You need gcc installed. libieee1284 and libinklevel >= 0.7.0 are required.
You may have to edit the Makefile to suit your needs (e.g. installation
directory).
tar xzf ink-0.4.1.tar.gz
cd ink-0.4.1
make
make install
Run the program as follows:
ink -p <port> [-n <portnumber>]
where port is either "parport" or "usb" and portnumber is the number of the
port to which your printer is connected. The portnumber is optional and
defaults to 0. You need read/write permission on the device the printer is
connected to. If you have an usb printer you can also specify the device
the printer is connected to directly by invoking ink like this:
ink -d /dev/usblp0
For getting version information about ink and libinklevel run it like this:
ink -v
