Use the “put” or “mput” command according to the number of files to be printed.
When the number of files to be printed is one
ftp> put \pass name\file name [option]
When the number of files to be printed is two or more
ftp> mput \pass name\file name [\pass name\file name...] [option]
For the mput command, “*” and “?” can be used as wild cards in the file name.
If these symbols are used, the file name will be read as an option string.
The procedure from starting ftp to printing is as follows.
Formulate the printer's IP address (or host name of the hosts file printer) as an argument and use the “ftp” command.
% ftp printer's IP address
Enter user names and passwords as needed, and then press the [Enter] key.
There is no default user name when the default password is “password”.
User:
password:
When printing a binary file, set binary as the file mode.
ftp> bin
When a binary file is printed in ASCII mode, print data may change and may not print out correctly.
Specify the file to be printed.
The following are examples of printing a RPCS file named “file1” in the C:\PRINT directory, and printing file1 and file2.
ftp> put C:\file1
ftp> mput C:\file1 C:\file2
Quit ftp.
ftp> bye
