7.6 Printing without the UNIX Spooler System
The printer script created during the software installation of your print server writes all data to be
printed into a temporary file and opens the connection to the print server’s FTP server. The temporary
file is transmitted using this connection. The destination file name on the print server uses the name of
the printer port.
However, you may send FTP commands without using the spooler system. In the example shown
below, a file named demofile containing some graphic data will be printed on the print server:
% ftp 192.0.0.123
C:\>ftp 192.000.000.123
