This panel is an example of what you will see if you toggle to TCP Printer in the Device Type
field.
IP Address or Name
This is the IP address of the system where the TCP Print Server resides to which LINCS will
be directing print jobs. 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.
TCP Port
This is the TCP Port that the TCP Print Server will listen to for print requests destined for
this TCP Printer. There is no industry standard port that is used for this purpose, but port 9100
is used by several vendors. Check your vendor’s documentation for the port used.
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.)
