Telnet Printing Problems
Introduction
If the device characteristics (see the section Verify the Physical Port Characteristics), port
configuration (see the section Verify the Port Configuration), printer device and cables
(see the section Test the Printer Port), and access server information (see the section Ver ify
Access Server Information) have been verified, perform the procedures in the sections
Verify Telnet Listener Configuration and Verify Characteristics on Host System.
Verify Telnet Listener Configuration
On the access server that offers the Telnet listener, enter the following command.
Substitute the number of the Telnet listener for 2014:
Local> SHOW TELNET LISTENER 2014
Listener Type: Telnet
Listener TCP-port: 2014
Identification: "Telnet Printer"
Ports: 4
Connections: Enabled
IP Address
0.0.0.0 (will default to server’s IP address)
If you are using an application that expects a raw TCP connection, verify that Listener
Type is set to RAW.
Verify that Connections are Enabled and the Telnet listener is configured on the correct
port. For more information on configuring a printer for access through a Telnet listener,
refer to the Network Access Software Management Guide.
Verify Characteristics on Host System
Verify that the system manager on the host system has the correct TCP port number and
Internet address to configure the remote print queue. For information on configuring a
remote print queue, refer to the Network Access Software Management Guide.
