6. TCP/IP Features
This chapter describes some features of the FastPrint Server that
are only available in the TCP/IP environment.
6.1. FTP
FTP (File Transfer Protocol) allows a user to log-on to a remote host and manipulate
files on the host. The FastPrint Server can act as an FTP host, with the following
limitations:
•
Only one FTP user can connect to the FastPrint Server.
•
Only “command line” FTP programs can be used. FTP programs which attempt
to “browse” the file system are not supported.
6.1.1. Using FTP
1. Start your FTP client from the command prompt (GUI interface FTP clients are not
supported) and connect to the FastPrint using its IP address.
e.g. ftp
203.70.212.155
Note: If your system has been configured as described in Unix host configuration
on page 25 , you can connect using the FastPrint Server’s name, rather
than the IP address.
2. The FastPrint Server will respond with “Print Server Ready” and prompt for “User”.
Enter the FastPrint’s name. If you have not previously assigned a name, you must use
the default name shown on the sticker on the base of the FastPrint Server.
3. You will now be prompted for the device password. If no password has been
assigned, just press E
NTER
to continue.
