6.2 OS/2 printing using LPR command
The LPR command may be used to print to the Xerox 4500 PS ETH.
To invoke the LPR command from the command line, type e.g. the
following command::
LPR -b -pLPDPrt1 -s192.0.110.1 myprint.pcl
To avoid having to type this every time, the parameters can be included in
a .CMD file.
For more details on the options available with the LPR command you are
referred to the chapter “Entering the LPR Command” in the “TCP/IP for
OS/2 User’s Guide” or to the “ TCP/IP Command Reference”.
6.3 OS/2 printing via redirection of LPTx Port with
LPRMON command
The LPRMON command is similar to the LPR command but provides an
on-screen monitoring facility of the data transfer to the Xerox 4500 PS
ETH.
The LPRMON command may be invoked from the command line typing
e.g.:
LPRMON -b -pLPDPrt1 -s192.0.110.1 LPT1
The above command may also be included in a .CMD file for ease of
operation.
For more details of the LPRMON command, please consult the LPRMON
section of the “TCP/IP for OS/2 User’s Guide” or the “TCP/IP Command
Reference”.
