Special Features
Internet Mail Printing
The Internet Mail Printing System allows users to print data to your printer across the Internet.
Users send the Internet LevelOne Printer Server an E-Mail, with the print job normally sent as
an attachment to the E-Mail. The LevelOne Printer Server will retrieve the E-Mail and print it.
System Requirements
Mail Server
• Accessibility. The Mail Server must be accessible by the intended clients or users.
Normally, this means a permanent connection to the Internet.
• Protocols. The Mail Server must support the POP3 and SMTP protocols. The Internet
Printing System uses these protocols and the most common E-Mail formatting standards:
• MIME (Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions)
• Base64 Encoding (for mail attachments)
Internet LevelOne Printer Server
• TCIP/IP Protocol. The LAN must use the TCP/IP protocol.
• Mail Server Access. The LevelOne Printer Server must be able to access the Mail Server
using a single IP address.
• Mail Account. The LevelOne Printer Server must have a Mail Account. Users print by
sending an E-Mail to this mail account.
User (Client) Requirements
• Internet Connection. Either through a LAN, or dial-up.
• E-Mail address. This is used to notify the user that their print job has been done, or if
there any problems.
• Printer Driver. Users must have a printer driver which matches the printer connected to
the remote Internet LevelOne Printer Server.
• Print Capture Software. To print more than plain text, users require InterNet Printing
