Item Description
LPD Printing (AUTO): Default LPD auto queue printing.
LPD Printing (BINPS): Default LPD binary postscript queue printing.
LPD Printing (<user-defined>): Up to 5 user-specified LPD queues will be listed if they
have been configured, where <user-defined> is the name of the user-specified LPD
print queue.
The default selection will depend on the printer, typically 9100 Printing or LPD Printing
(BINPS).
LPD Queues
The LPD Queues page allows you to specify LPD (line printer daemon) print queues on the Jetdirect
print server. For more information on LPD printing and print queues, see
Configuring for LPD Printing.
LPD printing must be enabled on the print server before you can set LPD queues. If LPD is disabled,
go to the
Misc. Settings tab to enable it.
If LPD printing is enabled, ten different named print queues are available. Four of these queues are
configured automatically and their parameters cannot be changed. The remaining six queues can be
defined by the user.
The six user-defined queues can be set up with character strings -- such as job control commands --
that are automatically added before or after the print job. You can define up to eight named strings,
and you can set up each queue so that any of these named strings precedes the print data (“prepend
string name”) or follows the print data (“append string name”).
LPD Queue Parameters for setting up LPD queues are described below. See
Table 4-5 LPD Queue
Parameters.
Table 4-5 LPD Queue Parameters
Item Description
Queue Name
Name of the user-defined queue. This name can be up to 32 characters long, and can
consist of any ASCII characters that can be displayed. You can define up to six user-
defined queues.
CAUTION Avoid the differentiation of queue names through the use of lower-
and upper-case characters only. Otherwise, management of LPD queues by
other tools (such as Telnet) may yield unpredictable results.
Prepend String Name Enter the name of one or more strings to be added before (or prepended to) the print
data. You specify string names and values in the table at the bottom of the page.
To prepend a long string, multiple string names may be concatenated, that is, entered
and separated by a “+” character. For example, to prepend a long string that has been
divided into two separate strings, enter:
<stringname1>+<stringname2>
where stringname1 and stringname2 are specified as two separate string names
with different values.
Append String Name Enter the name of one or more strings to be added after (or appended to) the print data.
You specify string names and values in the table at the bottom of the page.
