For example, a raw TCP/IP printer could be speciﬁed by either of the following:

"IP_RAWTCP/ln17ps.my.org:2501"

"IP_RAWTCP/8.9.10.11:2501"

Note

If you specify the wrong port number for the printer, DCPS is unable to

communicate with the printer. However, because the symptoms are no

different than if the printer were busy, ofﬂine, etc., you do not receive

any indication that the port number is illegal.

3.3.2.2 If Your Printer Is On a LAT Network or Directly Connected

Use the following format for serial printers:

If Your Serial Printer is On . . .

Use This

Format . . . Where . . .

A local serial line ‘‘SERIAL/Txyn’’ x is the printer type code, y is the

controller name, and n is the host system

unit number.

A LAT port ‘‘SERIAL/LTAn’’ n is the host system unit number.

Note

The SET TERMINAL and SET DEVICE commands translate the

name of the printer for serial printers. To prevent the commands
