❒ If the message "print requests full"
appears, no print jobs can be ac-
cepted. Try again when sessions
end. For each command, the
amount of possible sessions is indi-
cated as follows:
• lpr: 5(When the spool printing
function is available: 10)
• rcp, rsh: 5
• ftp: 3
❒ Enter the file name in a format in-
cluding the path from the directo-
ry executing commands.
Reference
The “option” specified in a com-
mand is an intrinsic printer option
and its syntax is similar to printing
from UNIX. For details, see UNIX
Supplement.
lpr
❖ When specifying a printer by IP ad-
dress
c:> lpr -Sprinter's IP ad-
dress [-Poption] [-ol]
\pass name\file name
❖ When using a host name instead of an
IP address
c:> lpr -Sprinter's host
name [-Poption] [-ol] \pass
name\file name
When printing a binary file, add
the "-ol" option (lowercase O, and
lowercase L).
When using a printer with the host
name "host" to print a PostScript file
named "file 1" located in the
"C:\PRINT" directory, the command
line is as follows:
c:> lpr -Shost -Pfiletype=RPS
-ol C:\PRINT\file1
rcp
First, register the printer's host name
in the hosts file.
c:> rcp [-b] \pass name\file
name [pass name\file name...]
printer's host name:[option]
Note
❒ In file names, "*" and "?" can be used
as wild cards.
❒ When printing a binary file, add
the “-b” option.
When using a printer with the host
name "host" to print a PostScript file
named "file 1" or "file 2" located in the
"C:\PRINT" directory, the command
line is as follows:
c:> rcp -b C:\PRINT\file1
C:\PRINT\file2 host:file-
type=RPS
Reference
For details about registering the
printer's host name in the hosts
file, see p.133 “Using a Host Name
Instead of an IP Address”.
ftp
Use the "put" or "mput" command ac-
cording to the number of files to be
printed.
❖ When one file is printed
ftp> put \pass name\file
name [option]
❖ When multiple files are printed
ftp> mput \pass name\file
name [\pass name\file
name...] [option]
Follow the procedure below to print
using the "ftp" command.
