Can't Print With Unix, Tcp/Ip, Or Lpr - Intel PCLA4251B - Netportexpress Pro Enet EXT 10BT Single Port Setup Manual

Can't print with UNIX, TCP/IP, or LPR

G Make sure the NetportExpress print server's IP address is valid. To check
the IP address, press the Test Page or Diag button. The IP address is printed
on the test page.
G Make sure TCP/IP printing is enabled. In Netport Manager or Web Netport
Manager, click Options and then click Protocol Enable/Disable.
G The NetportExpress print server may not be connected to the network. Use
ping from a UNIX workstation or DOS prompt to check IP connectivity to
the NetportExpress print server.
G If you are using proprint, verify that proprint is located in the appropriate
directory, for example, /usr/intl/hpux. Run the following command line test
from that directory:
./proprint IP_address job=2 port /etc/hosts
where
IP_address is the IP address of the NetportExpress print server and
port is 3001 for Parallel Port 1, 3002 for Parallel Port 2, and 2501 for the
Serial Port.
If this does not work, bypass the printcap file and run proprint alone. Type
on one line
./proprint IP_address job=2 port -pc /etc/hosts
where
IP_address is the IP address of the NetportExpress print server and
port is 3001 for Parallel Port 1, 3002 for Parallel Port 2, and 2501 for the
Serial Port.
G If you are using LPR remote printing and printing binary or PostScript files,
you may be using the wrong queue name on the print server. Make sure the
queue name is one of the following: LPT1_PASSTHRU,
LPT2_PASSTHRU, or COM1_PASSTHRU. For ASCII files and text,
make sure the queue name is one of the following: LPT1_TEXT,
LPT2_TEXT, or COM1_TEXT. If PASSTHRU is not working for
PostScript files, then try LPT1_PS, LPT2_PS, or COM1_PS. If you have
set a printer password on the print server, see passwords in the Online
Guide index.
