4.FTP logical directory


1.Print settings

The method of printing from UNIX / Linux will vary depending on your operating system and the version of it. For details on how to print, please refer to the operating manual that came with your operating system.


2.Supported printing protocols

SX-PS-3200P supports 3 protocols:

IPP
IPP (Internet Printing Protocol) is a protocol to print to the printers running on the network or Internet.
LPD
LPD (Line Printer Daemon) is a protocol to print to the printers running on the network.
FTP
FTP (File Transfer Protocol) is a protocol to transfer a file via TCP/IP. To perform printing, you need to transfer a job to the logical directory of SX-PS-3200P.

3.LPD logical printer

SX-PS-3200P has 3 logical printers:

lp Direct output port
sjis Shift- JIS KANJI code
euc EUC KANJI code

For printing a file using the printer driver, use "lp". For printing a text file using shift-JIS KANJI code, use "sjis". For printing a text file using EUC KANJI code, use "euc".


4.FTP logical directory

SX-PS-3200P has 3 logical directories. Use [cd] command to move to each one of these directories.
To print a file using the printer driver, go to .lp. directory; to print a text file after converting it into shift JIS KANJI code file, go to .sjis. directory; to print a text file after converting it to EUC KANJI code text file, go to .euc. directory. And then transfer the converted file.
