Chapter 2 Installing Printer Emulations
9. Make note of the file name, which is a six digit number plus .prg,
e.g., 123456.prg.
This is the file you will download into the NIC.
10. Copy the file to the download directory.
11. Start a command prompt session. (The Start Menu icon is usually labeled
MS-DOS Prompt or Command Prompt.)
12. At the command prompt type:
C:
cd \download
13. Start the FTP protocol by typing:
ftp xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
(where xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx represents the IP Address of the printer.)
14. Log in to the printer by typing:
root
You are given a password prompt.
15. At the password prompt, press .
16. Once logged in, type the following sequence at the command prompt to
download the filename.prg file to the printer:
cd dest
cd d1prn
bin
put filename.prg
(where filename.prg is the file name you noted in step 9.)
17. As the file downloads, the FTP program shows the progress as a
percentage. Once the download is complete, exit out of the FTP program
by typing:
quit
Note You must use the Unzipped directory, since this contains the
uncompressed files necessary for NIC download.
Note The default is no password. If the FTP program requires a password,
contact your system administrator.
Caution Do not interrupt the downloading process once it has started.
Interrupting a download will damage the flash memory on the
controller board and the NIC.
