Raw TCP/IP Printing

Raw TCP/IP is a printing method used to open a TCP socket-level connection over Port 9100, to stream
a print-ready file to the printer's input buffer. It then closes the connection either after sensing an End
Of Job character in the PDL or after expiration of a preset time-out value. Port 9100 does not require
an LPR request from the computer or the use of an LPD running on the printer. Raw TCP/IP printing is
selected in Windows as the Standard TCP/IP port.

Basic Settings

Notes:
• TCP/IP must be enabled before Raw TCP/IP Printing is enabled.
• Raw TCP/IP printing is selected in Windows 2000 as the Standard TCP/IP port.
• If your printer is locked, you must log in as a system administrator. For details, see
