Note: If sending the file to another person by email
or another method, make sure to copy the
“SIGNALTEK.xsl” file in addition to the test file so
the records can be properly viewed on the other
PC.
Printing Directly to a USB Printer
SIGNALTEK is the only LAN Qualification tester that can print
reports directly to a USB printer. Because SIGNALTEK uses the
Linux operating system, not all USB printers are supported. Please
check IDEAL’s website for a list of compatible printers. At the time
of this writing only HP printers have been found to support the
Linux native PCL driver included in SIGNALTEK.
? To print a job to a compatible printer, connect the printer to
SIGNALTEK’s top USB port. A USB “A to B” cable is required
for direct printing. These cables are available at any electronics
or computer store.
? Change to the Job tab and highlight the job to be printed.
? Press the “Print” function key to send the job to the printer.
Note: All tests in the selected job will be sent to
the printer. The user interface will remain locked
while the job is being sent to the printer.
