Data Connection A second connection, a data connection, is created each time a file is transferred between the client and the FTP server. The client controls the creation of a data connection by issuing the commands that require a data connection (such as FTP ls, dir or put commands). Although the ls and dir commands are always accepted, the HP Jetdirect FTP server supports only one data connection for printing at a time. The transmission mode for an FTP data connection with the HP Jetdirect print server is always in stream mode, which marks the end-of-file by closing the data connection. Once a data connection is established, the file transfer type (ASCII or binary) can be specified. Although some clients may attempt to autonegotiate a transfer type, the default is ASCII. To specify the transfer type, enter the bin or ascii command at the FTP prompt. FTP Login To start an FTP session, enter the following command from a MS-DOS or UNIX command prompt: ftp where is the valid IP address or node name configured for the HP Jetdirect print server. If the connection is successful, the HP Jetdirect model and firmware version will be displayed. After a successful connection, the user is prompted for a login name and password. The default is the client's login name. The Jetdirect FTP server will allow any user name. Passwords are ignored. ENWW FTP Printing D-105

Data Connection
A second connection, a data connection, is created each time a
file is transferred between the client and the FTP server. The
client controls the creation of a data connection by issuing the
commands that require a data connection (such as FTP
ls
,
dir
or
put
commands).
Although the
ls
and
dir
commands are always accepted, the
HP Jetdirect FTP server supports only one data connection for
printing at a time.
The transmission mode for an FTP data connection with the
HP Jetdirect print server is always in stream mode, which
marks the end-of-file by closing the data connection.
Once a data connection is established, the file transfer type
(ASCII or binary) can be specified. Although some clients may
attempt to autonegotiate a transfer type, the default is ASCII.
To specify the transfer type, enter the
bin
or
ascii
command
at the FTP prompt.
FTP Login
To start an FTP session, enter the following command from a
MS-DOS or UNIX command prompt:
ftp <IP address>
where
<IP address>
is the valid IP address or node name
configured for the HP Jetdirect print server.
If the connection is successful, the HP Jetdirect model and
firmware version will be displayed.
After a successful connection, the user is prompted for a login
name and password. The default is the client’s login name. The
Jetdirect FTP server will allow any user name. Passwords are
ignored.
