TCP/IP socket printing

You can set up your system to support TCP/IP socket printing.
Once the printer controller is configured to support socket
printing, you can set up your workstation. The administrator can
set up three separate ports on the printer controller (for example,
9100, 9101, and 9102). Each port can be configured to submit
jobs to the default printer, or to a specific virtual printer.

For more information on how to configure your printer to support
TCP/IP socket printing, refer to the Guide to Configuring and
Managing the System
, “Using utility commands” chapter.

You can use any of the following methods for print submissions
to socket printing:

Windows 2000 Network printing
