Printronix P5000LJ user manual Configuration Print Path, Destination Settings

Destination Settings

Pserver

Define a password for the NIC to use when logging in to the file server as a PSERVER. This is an optional file server security feature.

Rprinter

Define an RPRINTER setup so the NIC knows to service a PSERVER.NLM on a Novell file server. Define the PSERVER.NLM name, the number of the printer serviced by the NIC within this PSERVER.NLM, and the destination on the NIC you want the print jobs to pass through.

Configuration Print Path

The NIC print path is the path a print job takes when it reaches the network adapter. First the job goes to a destination/queue (e.g. d1prn) where it then passes through an associated model (e.g. m1) for extra processing and logpath (e.g. l1) for job and printer logging. Finally the job reaches the NIC's I/O port (e.g. PRN) where it passes through to the attached printer. The "Print Path" form displays one destination's settings at a time. From here, you can then select another destination or you can go directly to an I/O port to configure port settings.

Destination Settings

Name

Name of the destination. The default destination queue names are d1prn, d2prn, d3prn, and d4prn.

Back Channel

I/O port to receive printer feedback when a print job passes through this destination. By default d1prn, d2prn, d3prn, and d4prn have no backchannel.

Services

Define what type(s) of print services the destination will support. By Default all services are enabled.

•socket. prints to a TCP port number (e.g. 4000) on the NIC.

•lpd. remote printing using the Line Printer Daemon.

•lpsched. System V printing using the "lp" command.

•rprinter. Novell's remote printer setup.

•pserver. Novell's PSERVER setup.
