Server 2008, and Windows Vista.
Complete the following steps to print a print-ready file by using the LPR command.

2. From a command window, type the following:
lpr -P <IPADDRESS> -S <IPADDRESS> -o l <FILENAME>
or
lpr -S <IPADDRESS> -Pbinps <FILENAME>
where IPADDRESS can be either the TCP/IP address or the host name of the product, and where
FILENAME is the file name of the print-ready file.
NOTE: The parameter (-o l) consists of a lowercase "O", not a zero, and a lowercase "L", not
the numeral 1. This parameter sets the transport protocol to binary mode.

4. Type exit at the command prompt to close the command window.
