Downloading files if your printer is connected to Windows NT
This procedure lets you redirect (capture) LPT Ports
Under Windows NT print spooler, you create Ports based on their physical location:
■
Local ports = Lpt1 / Lpt2, etc.
■
IPX Port = \\NW_SERVER\Phaser
■
Appletalk Ports = WV Net 36:Phaser
■
TCP/IP Ports = 162.36.62.151:PS or [AUTO]
However, if you’re at a command prompt (DOS Prompt) and want to print, or copy, a
PostScript file to a port that is a network port, you can do the following:
■
TCP/IP Ports:
lpr -S [printers IP Address] -P [print queue] filename
For xxample:
lpr -S 134.62.36.70 -P PS test.ps
■
IPX and Appletalk ports require the redefinition of the LPTX port to the network path
through the use of the NET USE command.
NET USE LPT1 \\Server_Name\Queue_Name
For example: NET USE LPT1 \\NW_SERVER\Phaser
or:
NET USE LPT2 \\NT_SERVER_NT\Phaser
After redirecting the port using the NET USE command you can use the COPY
command to print the postscript file.
eg. C:\> COPY TEST.PS LPT1:
When finished, end the redirect with the command:
NET USE LPT1 /delete
