• If the message "print requests full" appears, no print jobs can be accepted. Try again when sessions
end. For each command, the amount of possible sessions is indicated as follows:
• lpr: 5 (When the spool printing function is available: 10)
• ftp: 3
• sftp: 3
• Enter the file name in a format including the path from the directory executing commands.
• The "option" specified in a command is an intrinsic printer option and its syntax is similar to printing
from UNIX. For details, see UNIX Supplement.
lpr
When specifying a printer by IP address
c:> lpr -Sprinter's IP address [-Poption] [-ol] \path\file name
When using a host name instead of an IP address
c:> lpr -Sprinter's host name [-Poption] [-ol] \path\file name
When printing a binary file, add the "-ol" option (lowercase O, and lowercase L).
When using a printer with the host name "host" to print a PostScript file named "file 1" located in the
"C:\PRINT" directory, the command line is as follows:
c:> lpr -Shost -Pfiletype=RPS -ol C:\PRINT\file1
ftp / sftp
Use the "put" or "mput" command according to the number of files to be printed.
When one file is printed
ftp> put \path\file name [option]
When multiple files are printed
ftp> mput \path\file name [\path\file name...] [option]
Follow the procedure below to print using the "ftp" command.
1. Formulate the printer's IP address or the host name of the hosts file printer as an argument
and use the "ftp" command.
% ftp "printer's IP address"
2. Enter the user name and password, and then press the [Enter] key.
For details about the user name and password, consult your network administrator.
