SET PU = no

For example, to set the Power Up Status Page option to NO, the following would be required:

Technical Note: The Print Server unit responds to Telnet Data in accordance with RFC 854 on the standard Telnet Port, 23 (decimal).

5.3 Printing within TCP/IP

There are two main methods of printing documents to the Print Server using the TCP/IP protocol:

•	PRR	Berkeley remote LPR (LPD daemon)
•	FTP	File Transfer Protocol

NOTE: Printing from ‘LP’ or ‘LPR’ on Unix V systems, is only possible if an application program is available to re-route print data to the LPR socket.

5.3.1 Printing using LPR

The typical command line for sending a print via remote LPR to the PeNetTM Print Server would be:

LP -dprintdef file.txt where printdef is the printer name defined in a printcap file, with :rm=Host Name and :rp=Port Name

The LPQ and LPSTAT commands are supported by Print Server by returning “No Entries”

5.3.2 Printing From IBM AIX

Printing from AIX using LPR is possible. The necessary setup is performed with a utility called SMIT.

(continued)

Setup the Print Server as for normal TCP/IP operation regarding

Internet Address etc. and then use SMIT to add a host with the PeNetTM Print Server’s Host Name. Add a remote queue and specify Destination Host (as above) and Queue, on Remote Printer=Pport1 (or other PeNetTM Print Server port). Set the Remote Device To Add to the Printer Name for this printer.

To print, use the following command: LPR -P printer name file.txt

5.3.3 Printing Using FTP

It is also possible to print files to the Print Server using FTP (File Transfer Protocol). Typically this would be achieved by instigating an FTP session, as the sequence of commands below shows:

ftp hostname where hostname is the Print Server to connect to put filename

quit

5.3.4 Printing From SCO UNIX

SCO Unix no longer supports remote LPR so the FTP method of printing will need to be used. A script file can be created to automate this process as shown below:

TMPFILE=/tmp/ftpprint.$$ printer=laserprt $(0) /usr/spool/lp/model/standard “$@”>$TMPFILE ftp -n $printer <<END

binary

put $TMPFILE quit

rm $TMPFILE exit

The script intercepts the print command and redirects the output to a temporary file. FTP then sends this file to the host before deleting it and exiting from the script file.

Technical Note: The Print Server unit supports the LPR protocol as defined in RFC 1179 and FTP as defined in RFC 959. The unit responds to LPR data sent to socket 515 and FTP data sent to socket 20.
