Introduction
There are three methods of printing from your IOLAN+: ioland, LPD, or RCP. ioland is the
recommended method, however this will depend on your application and operating system.
Method Description
ioland ioland provides a pseudo TTY interface to Unix print spoolers (not
available for Windows ® ). This software and the binaries
associated with it are available from the Perle CD provided with the
unit or from the Perle website.
LPD LPD is the ‘line printer daemon’ protocol supported by mmost
operating systems including Windows ® and Unix (for example,
SCO, AIX, DG/UX, HP-UX, Linux, Solaris, etc.) for an LPD spooler
for Windows ® 95/98 see our website.
RCP RCP is ‘remote copy printing’ and available on Unix systems. It
requires a special interface script also found on the Perle CD.
