Introduction
FTP (File Transfer Protocol) allows a user to log-on to a remote host, and manipulate files on
the host. The IOPRINT+ Print Server can act as a FTP host, allowing FTP to be used for both
configuration and printing. However, the following limitations apply:
• Only one FTP user can connect to the IOPRINT+ Print Server.
• Only "command line" FTP programs can be used. FTP programs which attempt to
"browse" the file system are NOT supported.
Using FTP
1. Configure the IOPRINT+ Print Server so that it has a valid IP Address.
2. Start your FTP client from the command prompt (GUI interface FTP clients are NOT
supported) and connect to the IOPRINT+ Print Server using its IP Address.
e.g. ftp 203.70.212.155
3. The IOPRINT+ Print Server will respond with "Print Server Ready" and prompt for
"Name", as shown below:
4. Enter the name for this device. If you have not assigned a name, you must use the
"Default name" shown on the sticker on the base of the unit. The "Default name" is in the
form SCxxxxxx (SC followed by 6 digits).
5. You will then be prompted for the password. If no password has been set, just press
ENTER.
6. From the resulting prompt, you can manipulate the following files, and use the following
commands.
