NTI RACK MOUNT CONSOLE TERMINAL WITH CONSOLE SWITCH 4 6 Using Printer Server via Ethernet Connection Introduction In order to send print jobs to a network based printer the Ethernet Print Terminal function in the TERMINAL must be used To use this function the Telnet Terminal communication option described on page 1 is available For this option to work an Ethernet cable must be connected as described on page 6 There are two ways to send the print jobs to a network connected printer 1 through LPD protocol and 2 through TFTP protocol The LPD method is more suitable for printing environments with a large number of users because the LPD protocol has a queue process so print jobs will be kept in the print queues in the CPU TFTP does not implement the print queue concept if the printer port is not ready for accepting new print jobs TFTP will be terminated Consequently the user must send the print job again As a result the TFTP protocol is suitable for printing small jobs in an environment with a small number of users or for testing purposes LPD is a built in printing protocol in the BSD type of UNIX and is also available in most other UNIX systems With LPD users do not need to install additional software to the CPU to print the jobs Most implementations of the LPD protocol send out the data file before the control file However since Ethernet Print Terminal must print the data file immediately upon receiving it the print
