3 Telnet server
The Ethernet interface has a command line interpreter. You can connect to the printer using a Telnet
session on your PC, issue commands to the printer and receive responses from the printer.
The Telnet commands are primarily used for network administration, and they are not used by most users.
These commands query the state of the printer and configure various settings for the printer. These include
network settings, logging settings, user names, and user passwords.
