Problem installing printer in Mandrake 9.1


Dear friends,

I am new to Linux and have installed Mandrake 9.1 on my office Dell desktop.

We have a Xerox Document Center 230 - Networked printer.

I went to their website and downloaded both Linuxi386XpxxInstall and PrinterpackageXpxx files into file:/home/anand/documents directory.

I unzipped them (sorry windows hangover!) in the same directory.

I then went to superuser mode and ran ./setup command and the results are enclosed below....

root@dubbc8sn0j-1 Linuxi386XpxxInstall]# ./setup
.............ERROR: unable to locate system command 'uncompress'
[root@dubbc8sn0j-1 Linuxi386XpxxInstall]#

What am I doing wrong?.

Kindly help.

I look forward to your assistance.

Best regards,

Anand K.

Looks like the setup program is looking for an app called 'uncompress'
so, you need to locate it. Try "locate uncompress" no quotes in a terminal.
