Session layer
Application layer
Notes
• Send the print data by LPR and FTP of TCP/IP and dedicated socket protocol.
• Use socket connection to get the printer status.

7.7.2 TCP/IP Specifications

In TCP/IP protocol environment, LPD and FTP are provided for printing. TELNET is provided for the setup of
various variables, and ARP, RARP and BOOTP/DHCP for the setup of IP address are available.
In WindowsNT4.0, Windows95/98, WindowsMe, Windows2000, WindowsXP, and WindowsVista
environments, IP address and variables can be set using the [Admin Manager] in the utility of attached CD-
ROM. For more information about [Admin Manager], refer to [Network Utility] in the CD-ROM.
In socket connection, the printing operation and the status are monitored by using [Printer Driver] and [Status
Monitor] in the CD-ROM. In this case, multiple connections cannot be established at the same time. For more
information about [Printer Driver] and [Status Monitor], refer to the instructions in the CD-ROM.
WindowsNT4.0, Windows2000, WindowsXP and WindowsVista operating systems support LPD of TCP/IP
that enables you to print; however, Windows95/98 and WindowsMe are not configured with LPD. In order to
perform printing operation, off-the-shelf printing software is required.

7.7.3 LPD Specifications

LPD protocol complies with RFC1179 and handles the list of logical printer name as queue name such as lp,
sjis and euc. In addition, a banner page can be printed by a proper setup.
Queue name
lp
sjis
euc
When sending a job by LPR, the transmission order of data file/control file within the job does not affect the
printing operation. In addition, if the banner page is specified, it will be added to each data file.
Notes
• A job deletion by LPR is not supported.
• LPD can be used for STATUS4 only

7.7.4 FTP Specifications

FTP protocol complies with RFC959 and handles the list of logical printer name as transfer directory. File
transfer to this directory executes print operation. Note that it is possible to specify ASCII(A), BINARY(I), and
TENEX(L8) as transfer modes, although mode difference is dependent on the client side.
In addition, a banner page can be printed with a proper setup.
There are three directory names such as lp, sjis and euc.
Queue name
lp
sjis
euc
