HP (Hewlett-Packard) 5200 Printer User Manual


 
Macintosh, print print-ready documents
If the HP LaserJet 5200 uses a direct network connection, use file transfer protocol (FTP) to print a print-
ready file. Complete the following steps:
1. Make note of the TCP/IP address on the Embedded Jetdirect page. The HP Embedded Jetdirect
page is the second page of the configuration page printout. To print a configuration page, see
Determining the current level of firmware .
2. Open a Terminal window on your Macintosh. You can find the Terminal program on the computer
hard drive in the following folder:
System/Applications/Utilities/Terminal
3. Type FTP <TCP/IP printer ADDRESS>. For example, if the TCP/IP address is 192.168.0.90,
type the following:
FTP 192.168.0.90
4. Press Enter on the keyboard.
5. When prompted for a user name and password, press Enter.
6. You can drag and drop the print-ready file into the Terminal folder (System/Applications/Utilities/
Terminal). Alternatively, you can type put <path>, where <path> is the location where the print-
ready file was downloaded from the Web. For example, type the following:
put /username/desktop/5200FW.PDF
NOTE If the file name or path includes a space, you must enclose the file name or path in
quotation marks. For example, type put "/user name/desktop/5200FW.PDF"
To ensure that the entire path to the print-ready file is placed in the put command, type
put and a space, and then click and drag the print-ready file onto the terminal window. The
complete path to the file is automatically placed after the put command.
7. Press Enter to print the document.
