Remote LPD Printing
The way print jobs are queued to a Remote LPD system
varies among the vendors that support TCP/IP. UNIX
systems that are BSD-based typically use the lpr pro-
gram to submit print jobs. Other UNIX systems may
use the lp program to submit print jobs. PC-based TCP/
IP packages often provide a command line lpr program
and a utility to redirect the output of an LPT port to a
Remote LPD system.
Consult your system administrator or software vendor
for assistance troubleshooting LPD.
Note: The Remote LPD implementation of the OkiLAN
6010e does not support any UNIX LPD input or output
filters or the direct printing of banner pages. It is pos-
sible to configure some UNIX systems so that banner
pages and input and output filters will be generated at
the UNIX host and then sent to the OkiLAN 6010e.
(Refer to Appendix B, Application Considerations.)
FTP Printing
FTP is a command line program used to transfer files
between computers. FTP provides commands for
opening a connection to another computer, specifying
the data type of any transfers, and sending and receiving
files. The OkiLAN 6010e supports a subset of the FTP
command set. This subset allows the FTP user to open a
connection to the OkiLAN 6010e, specify a file transfer
data type and send print files to a Remote Print Queue
Name on the OkiLAN 6010e.
