FTP Printing

Introduction

FTP (File Transfer Protocol) is a basic TCP/IP connectivity utility to transfer data between systems. FTP printing is a way to use FTP to send print files from a client system to an HP Jetdirect-connected printer. In an FTP printing session, the client connects and sends a print file to the HP Jetdirect FTP server which in turn passes the print file to the printer.

The HP Jetdirect FTP server can be enabled or disabled through a configuration utility, such as Telnet.

Requirements

FTP printing requires the following:

●HP Jetdirect print servers with firmware version x.08.55 or later.

●TCP/IP client systems with FTP that complies with RFC 959.
