Section 4 - Chapter 3 - TCP/IP Configuration and Printing
Note: The Remote LPD implementation of the OkiLAN 6100e+ does not support any UNIX LPD input or output filters or the direct printing of banner pages. It is possible to configure some UNIX systems so that banner pages and input and output filters will be generated at the UNIX host and then sent to the OkiLAN 6100e+. (Refer to Appendix B, Application Considerations.)
FTP Printing
FTP is a command line program used to transfer files between computers. FTP provides commands for opening a connection to another computer, specifying the data type of any transfers, and sending and receiving files. The OkiLAN 6100e+ supports a subset of the FTP command set. This subset allows the FTP user to open a connection to the OkiLAN 6100e+, specify a file transfer data type and send print files to a Remote Print Queue Name on the OkiLAN 6100e+.
The OkiLAN 6100e+ recognizes the following FTP commands:
PUT Print a single file
The PUT command sends the file to the OkiLAN 6100e+. The first parameter of the PUT command is the name of the local file to PUT. The second parameter of the PUT command is the name of the file for the remote PC. In order to print the file, this second parameter must be a Remote Print Queue Name. If you do not specify the second parameter, FTP sets the remote file name to the local file name. This may produce undesirable printing results.
SEND Treated the same as PUT.
MPUT Print multiple files.
