Intermate100 and Intermate101 Print Server Administration Manual 164
Services in “Input Control”: FTP Print
22.4. FTP Print
FTP print is primarily meant for use in UNIX environments. It
requires
giving a command
manually from the command line.
You can use this method to print any file which is “application-
independent-printable” and compatible with the printer. Typical
examples are PCL formatted files, .prn files and .txt files.
22.4.1. Configuration
1 Choose where you want the output of FTP jobs directed.
See
“Common Feature: How to Direct Output” [page 159]
.
Note:
Before release level 1071, it was only possible to
direct output to PR0 / Logical Printer 0.
2 Remember to “Save & Cont.” and then “Reboot” to activate.
22.4.2. Using FTP Print
These are the steps required for each job (the precise syntax in
the example is from AIX):
1 Connect to the print server via ftp
For example:
ftp 192.168.0.227
2 Log on using the special user name parallel (case
sensitive). No password is needed.
This will start the ftp session in the directory in which FTP
print can be executed.
3 Set the transfer mode to binary.
binary
4 Copy (download) your print file to the print server. This
example assumes that the file named booklist.prn is
located in C:\ root on your PC. Remember to include the file
name extension.
put c:\booklist.prn
5 End the FTP session.
