FTP

Embedded within the 10/100 Internal PS is an FTP server application that processes file transfers from a host computer to the printer.

If the printer is on a network, label formats can be generated and data can be transferred without setting up a print queue.

To send information to the printer in a Windows environment, try this exercise:

1.In Notepad, generate the following ZPL II code:

^XA

^FO100,100

^CF0,55^FDBrady Corporation^FS ^XZ

2.Save the file with the name: c:\test.txt.

3.Open the MS-DOS Command Prompt and type: ftp <IP of 10/100 PS>

Example • If the IP address of your 10/100 Internal PS device is 12.3.4.123, you would type:

ftp 12.3.4.123

This opens a session with the FTP server.

Note • The default user name is blank.

4.Type your user name and press Enter.

5.Type:

put c:\test.txt

This transfers test.txt to the printer, and the printer generates a label.

6.To terminate the FTP session, type: quit
