Configuring the EPL-N2000 for UNIX 5-7
Note:
The status report may show gaps in the stack entries; for example, only
jobs 2, 5, and 7 appear. The missing entries are print jobs sent by a
different protocol, such as AppleTalk.
Using ftp to Print
As a default, ftp uses binary file transfer. If you want to include
carriage returns at the end of lines, change to ASCII file transfer
by entering ascii on the command line. To change back to
binary file transfer, enter binary on the command line.
You can also append a form feed to the end of a print job by
giving the destination file the name FEED or feed.
Follow these steps to print using ftp:
1. Type ftp, then open the EPL-N2000. The format is as
follows:
ftp open <host name>
2. Use the send command to send the print job. If you want to
specify a particular output, enter any special commands or
filters. The format for the send command is as follows:
send <filename>
The following example illustrates using ftp to send a file
named “txtfile” in ASCII mode with a form feed appended.
ftp open Allison
ascii
send txtfile feed
Note:
You can use scripts and ftp spool queues to automate the process of
sending files to the EPL-N2000.
