Software description Complete the following steps to print a print-ready file by using the LPR command. 1 Take note of the TCP/IP address on the EIO Jetdirect page. The Jetdirect page is the second page of the configuration page printout. To print a configuration page, see Determining the current level of firmware. 2 From a command window, type lpr -P IPADDRESS -S IPADDRESS -o l FILENAME lpr -S -Pbinps , where IPADDRESS can be either the TCP/IP address or the host name of the product, and where FILENAME is the file name of the printready file. NOTE The parameter (-o l) consists of a lowercase "O", not a zero, and a lowercase "L", not the numeral 1. This parameter sets the transport protocol to binary mode. 3 The file prints, but no further messages appear in the command prompt window. 4 Type exit at the command prompt to close the command window.
