18. PSF/AIX Printing Using TCP/IP

This chapter provides details on:

Adding a TCP/IP attached printer

Setup of the KEEPALIVE TCP/IP feature

Requirements

Before IPDS printing using TCP/IP can be accomplished, the following points need to be checked:

1. AIX1.2 with PTF U436937 or later must be installed.

The above conditions must have been met and the basic TCP/IP installation of the PrintServer (IPDS) completed before direct AFP / IPDS from PSF/AIX will be possible.

18.1 Adding TCP/IP attached printer

The port number is defined in the PSF/AIX SMIT “ Add a TCP/IP-Attached Printer” panel.

1.Enter Printer name

PSF/AIX uses the printer name you specify. Enter a name of up to 8 characters.

2.Enter Internet address

The address in the TCP/IP network where the PrintServer is installed. Enter a 32-bit dotted decimal notation (e.g. 192.0.2.1).

3.Enter Port number (5001)

If the output device is attached to PARALLEL 1 of the print server, then select TCP/IP port number 5001. The value chosen must match the value defined for the session in the PrintServer (IPDS). 5001 is the default port number of the first IPDS port no. in the PrintServer (IPDS).
