UNSUPPORTED INTERFACE
COMMENTS
APP Socket Raw TCP protocol data from Host to printer (port 9100)
Status returned to Host as UDP data on Port 9101
RAW TCP OPERATION
TCP communication is initiated by opening the connection (item 1) and terminated by closing the connection
(item 4). Item 2 is necessary to print tickets. The printer can return status data (item 3) either in response to
an external status request or as a result of a change in printer status. Each item below must be completed with
the indicated acknowledgement. In the event that the item is not completed, the printer may initiate a timeout to
close the port and discontinue the application (see Retransmit Command Timeout). In the event that the
connection remains open for an excessive amount of time, the printer may reset the connection and discontinue
the application if another application requests service (see Idle Timeout Command).
1. Host opens the connection / Printer acknowledges / Host acknowledges
2. Host sends data / Printer acknowledges
3. Printer sends data / Host acknowledges (RAW TCP only)
4. Host closes the connection / Printer acknowledges / Host acknowledges
Please note that the printer will only allow one open connection at a time. Normally, an application will open a
connection and close it after the ticket data has been sent and all status has been received. Any other
applications requesting a connection will be refused until the original connection has been closed or the idle
timeout period has expired.
WEB CONFIGURATION:
The printer can be configured across the network by typing in its IP address in the Address Bar of a Web
Browser. It will allow you to set the same configuration options available under the control panel Factory Menu.
