8.3.3 - The rsh Command
The rsh command (or rcmd on SCO OpenServer) can be used to print a file.
The rsh parameters are:
- The hostname or the IP address of the device,
- A keyword which is the AX3000 auxiliary port name. This name has been
set through the AX3000 Set-Up (see Chapter 3.5.6).
To print a file, the rsh command reads data from 'standard input' (stdin) and
sends this data to one of the AX3000’s auxiliary ports. For example:
$ rsh axname parallel < file <CR>
In this example, axname is the name of the AX3000 (refer to /etc/hosts file)
and parallel is the Printer Port Name of the AX3000 auxiliary port.
8.3.4 - Using Transparent Mode
One of the auxiliary or logical ports should be selected as the default printer port
which will be controlled by escape sequences.
Select the [Configuration]-[Terminal]-[Miscellaneous] dialog and set the
'default printer port'.
This default port can only be used if no network service (lpd, tty, etc) is currently
using it.
Note: the default printer port is also used to perform local printing of the screen
using the <Prt Scr> key.
