FTP

FTP can also be used to configure print server settings remotely. A TCP/IP host uses FTP to store a file containing 1 or more NPSH commands on the FTP file system. The configuration file must be FTP ‘put’ to the /config/default/defaultCfg file. The configuration file can later be executed on demand using the ‘load oem’ command during a telnet (NPSH) session. The configuration file is also executed automatically during the power-up sequence when DIP switch 1 is closed.

PTX_SETUP

The PTX_SETUP command can also be used to configure NIC settings through a printer data port (serial, parallel, etc.). This is done by creating a text file containing the PTX_SETUP command and NIC internal command shell (npsh) commands. The text file is then sent to the printer through a data port to perform the NIC configuration. The following is an example of a PTX_SETUP file that can be used to configure the NIC:

!PTX_SETUP

NIC_SETUP

store net 1 addr 190.168.2.11

store ifc 2 wlan ssid “SomeLongString” store ifc 2 wlan defkey 2

END_NIC_SETUP PTX_END
