Printing Files Directly from Windows

You can print files directly using Windows commands. For example, you can print PostScript files for
PostScript 3.
Windows 95/98/Me
You can print files directly using "ftp" command.
Windows 2000/XP, Windows Server 2003, Windows NT 4.0
You can print files directly using "lpr", "rcp", or "ftp" command.
• To use "sftp" commands, use an sftp client software that is compatible with ssh v2.

Setup

Follow the procedure below to make network environment settings.
1. Enable TCP/IP with the control panel, and then set up the printer's network environment
about TCP/IP including IP addresses.
TCP/IP of the printer is set as default.
2. Install a TCP/IP in Windows to set up the network environment.
Consult the administrator for the local setting information.
3. To print under Windows 2000/XP, Windows Server 2003, or Windows NT 4.0, install
"Printing service for UNIX" as the network application. To print under Windows NT 4.0,
install "Microsoft TCP/IP printing" as the network application.
• For details about setting up "IPv4 address", see Hardware Guide.
• For details about setting the "IPv4 address" of the printer using DHCP, see p.358 "Cautions to
Take When Using in a network".

Using a Host Name Instead of an IPv4 Address

When a host name is defined, you can specify a printer by host name instead of IPv4 address. The host
names vary depending on the network environment.
