When TCP/IP is used as the network protocol, you can also use the "ftp" command for printing.
Go to the command prompt.
About how to open the command prompt, see Windows help.
Enter the "ftp" command.
ftp IPaddress
Substitute "IPaddress" with the IP address of the printer to which you want to send the TIFF or CALS file.
The "ftp" command starts, prompting you to enter a user name.
User:
Enter any string as the user name, and then press the [Enter] key.
The prompt for password entry appears.
Password:
Press the [Enter] key.
Password entry is not mandatory.
The "ftp" prompt appears.
ftp>
Enter "bin", and then make the settings to send a TIFF file in binary mode.
In order to print the TIFF or CALS file properly, you need to change the transfer mode to "binary".
ftp> bin
Enter the subcommand to transfer the file you want to print at the "ftp" prompt.
ftp> put tiff-filename
Substitute "tiff-filename" with the name of the TIFF or CALS file you want to print.
The RTIFF Menu configured on the machine can be temporarily changed for printing by adding printing options to the "put" subcommand.
Example:
ftp> put tiff-filename filetype=RTF,copies=3,center
To exit "ftp", enter "bye" at the "ftp" prompt.
You can also use the "lpr" or "rcp" command to print files.
For details about how to use the print commands, see "Printing Files Directly from Windows", Appendix.
For details about printing options, see Specifying Printing Options.
