9.4 FTP SERVER SPECIFICATIONS
9.4.1 Setup
To connect to the printer from the client PC via FTP, the user name and the password must be
entered. The user name and the password must be stored in the ATA card as the password file.
The password file should be saved as “pass.txt” in the “pass” folder in the ATA card. The format
for the password is as follows:
• Administrator’s password
Format ADMINUSR=root,ADMINPASS=barcode
Set the user name of the administrator and the password, following “ADMINUSR=” and
“ADMINPASS=”, respectively.
Up to 15 characters are available for the user name of the administrator. Up to 10 characters
are available for the password.
• User’s password
Format USR=toshiba,PASS=tec
Set the user name and the password, following “USR=” and “PASS=”, respectively.
Up to 15 characters are available for the user name. Up to 10 characters are available for
the password.
The administrator has access to all files including the “pass.txt” file in the ATA card. Users
other than the administrator have access to folders, except the “SX_HTM”, “HTTP”, “PASS”,
“MAIL”, and “XML” folders.
NOTE: If there is no “pass” folder or “pass.txt” file on the ATA card, a client PC is
connected to the printer as the administrator.
9.4.2 Connection
Log on to the printer from the client PC, using the user name and the password described in the
“pass.txt” file. When the client PC is connected to the printer, the root folder to be used in the
ATA card is “/ATA0/”.
9.4.3 Storing Print Jobs
When a file is transferred into the “PRTDATA” folder (/ATA0/PRTDATA) via FTP, it is stored as a
real-time print job. When a file is transferred into the “PRTPOOL” folder (/ATA0/PRTPOOL), it is
stored as a spooled print job. For details on the spooler function, refer to section 7.4.7.
NOTE: If the same print job name (file name) as the existing file is used, the new data will
overwrite.
