Configuration Alternatives
Besides the HTML forms and software provided, the PrintNet internal command shell, npsh, can also be reached using these methods:
Telnet
A TCP/IP command that helps configure PrintNet settings remotely. A TCP/IP host starts a Telnet session with the print server and logs in to the device command shell to alter and view settings.
Example:
telnet 192.75.11.9
Remote Shell
A TCP/IP command that helps configure print server settings remotely. A TCP/IP host uses this command to remotely execute a single command on the PrintNet.
Example:
rsh spike list prn
This command remotely executes the npsh command “list prn” on the PrintNet named spike.
