Use the "put" or "mput" command according to the number of files to be printed.

When one file is printed

When multiple files are printed

ftp> mput \path\file name [\path\file name...] [option]

  1. Formulate the printer's IP address or the host name of the hosts file printer as an argument and use the "ftp" command.

    % ftp printer's IP address

    ftp> put C:\PRINT\file1 filetype=RPS

    ftp> mput C:\PRINT\file1 C:\PRINT\file2

  5. Quit ftp.
