Options unique to TCP Printers

IP Address or Name

This is the IP address or the Domain Name of the system where the TCP Print Server
resides to which LINCS will be directing print jobs. When using a Domain Name,
make sure that you have configured an IP address for the Domain Name Server, on
the Line Options - TCP/IP Options panel.

TCP Port

This is the TCP Port that the TCP Print Server will listen to for print requests destined
for this TCP Printer.

IPDS Support

When enabled, this parameter will cause LINCS to pass IPDS (mainframe graphics) to
the LAN printer. The printer must be capable of supporting IPDS natively, such as the
Genicom 5038 printer. (LINCS does not perform protocol conversion to other printer
protocols such as Postscript or PCL5.)

Options unique to LPD Printers

IP Address or Name

This field contains the IP address of the host computer where the LPD print server
resides, to which LINCS will be directing prints to. Optionally, you may code in a
Domain Name instead of an IP address. When using a Domain Name, make sure that
you have configured an IP address for the Domain Name Server, on the Line Options -
TCP/IP Options panel.

Queue Name

This queue is where print files will be queued that are destined for the LPD printer. The
queue can reside on a host or a LINCS LPD print server. The queue name can be up to
16 alphanumeric characters, and could be case sensitive at the printer. Some stand-
alone LAN printers do not make use of a queue name, but you must still configure one
to satisfy LINCS. If the LAN printer does not require a queue name, any configured
queue name can be used.

Limit Source TCP Port

The Limit Source TCP Port field limits the range of source TCP ports that may be used
for LPD print jobs.

ENABLE limits the range of available TCP ports to 721 through 731, as required by
some LPD servers. If there are eleven active LPR sessions using all the TCP ports
between 721 and 731, then any new print requests on a LPD device will be refused.
