Network Utilities for Phaser Color Printers
AppSocket (TCP Sockets)
By sending the appropriate PostScript Þle to the printer, you can control
which hosts can access the printer through AppSocket. You can also control
whether AppSocket will Þlter out CRTL-D characters from the Þles it sends
the printer. The printer has the following factory defaults:
■ All hosts have access to the printer.
■ No control character Þltering.
To create a PostScript Þle to control these parameters, use the script
conÞg-sockets provided on the UNIX version of the printerÕs network utilities
diskettes.
1.
Make sure that the printer is connected to the network.
2.
Run the script conÞg-sockets:
a.
Change (cd) to the bin subdirectory in the directory where you
placed your printerÕs network utilities.
b.
Type the name of the script, redirecting the output to a Þle:
conÞg-sockets > filename
3.
When prompted, indicate if you want the host to Þlter out control
characters from the Þles it sends to the printer. If your PostScript
driver inserts CTRL-Ds in the PostScript print Þles as
end-of-transmission characters, then enter y for yes, to allow
filtering.
4.
When prompted, enter the IP addresse(s) of the host(s) that will
have access to the printer. You can enter addresses for multiple
hosts by separating them with spaces. If you do not enter any
addresses, all hosts will have access to the printer.
5.
Send the Þle named in Step 2b to the printer. Type:
lp -dqueue-name filename
