Using a Print Server

6. Special Operations under Windows

Printing Files Directly from Windows

You can print files directly using Windows “lpr” commands.

Setup

Follow the procedure below to make network environment settings.

A Enable TCP/IP using Web Image Monitor, and then set up the printer’s net-

work environment about TCP/IP including IP addresses.

TCP/IP of the printer is set as default.

B Install a TCP/IP in Windows to set up the network environment.

Consult the network administrator for the local setting information.

C To print, install “Printing service for UNIX” as the network application.

Reference

For details about setting the IPv4 address of the printer using DHCP, see p.69 “Using DHCP”.

This completes the setup for specifying a printer using an IPv4 address when printing. When using a host name to specify a printer, proceed to p.52 “Using a Host Name Instead of an IPv4 Address” and continue the setup.

For details about Printing service for UNIX, see Windows Help.

Special Operations under Windows

Using a Host Name Instead of an IPv4 Address

When a host name is defined, you can specify a printer by host name instead of IPv4 address. The host names vary depending on the network environment.

When using DNS

Use the host name set to the data file on the DNS server.

When setting the IPv4 address of a printer using DHCP

Use the printer name on the configuration page as the host name.

Reference

For details about printing a configuration page, see p.40 “Printing the printer configurations”.

In other cases

Add the IPv4 address and host name of the network printer to the hosts file on the computer used for printing.

A Open the hosts file using memo pad files, for instance.

The hosts file is in the following folder:

\WINNT\SYSTEM32\DRIVERS\ETC\HOSTS

“\WINNT” is the directory of the installation destination for Windows 2000/XP/Vista and Windows Server 2003/2003 R2.

B Add an IPv4 address and host name to the hosts file using the following

format:

192.168.15.16 host # NP

“192.168.15.16” is the IPv4 address, “host” is this printer's host name, and “#NP” is replaced by comments. Insert a space or tab between “192.168.15.16” and “host”, between “host” and “#NP” respectively, using one line for this format.

C Save the file.

Printing Files Directly from Windows

Printing Commands

The following explains printing operations using the “lpr” commands.

Enter commands using the command prompt window. The location of the command prompt varies depending on operating systems:

• Windows 2000

[Start] - [Programs] - [Accessories] - [Command Prompt]

• Windows XP/Vista, Windows Server 2003/2003 R2

[Start] - [All Programs] - [Accessories] - [Command Prompt]

Note

❒ Match the data format of the file to be printed with the emulation mode of this

printer.

❒ If the message “print requests full” appears, no print jobs can be accepted. Try

again when sessions end. For each command, the amount of possible sessions is indicated as follows:

•lpr: 10

❒ Enter the file name in a format including the path from the directory execut-

ing commands.

lpr

❖ When specifying a printer by IP address

c:> lpr -Sprinter's IP address -Pprinter name [-ol] \pass name\file name

❖ When specifying a printer by host name instead of IP address

c:> lpr -Sprinter's host name -Pprinter name [-ol] \pass name\file name

To print a binary file, include the “-ol” switch (a dash followed by a lowercase O and L) after the printer name.

❖ DDST Printer Driver

This printer driver allows the computer to communicate with the printer via a printer language. The following operating system is supported.

• Windows 2000/XP/Vista and Windows Server 2003/2003 R2

Mac OS X 10.2.8 (or later)

Appendix

Reference

For information about using Smart Organizing Monitor, see p.36 “Using Smart Organizing Monitor”.

Cautions to Take When Using in a Network

Using DHCP

You can use this printer in a DHCP environment.

• Supported DHCP servers are those which are included with Windows 2000 Server and Windows Server 2003/2003 R2.

• DHCP relay-agent is not supported. If you use DHCP relay-agent on a network via ISDN, it will result in increased line charges. This is because your computer connects to the ISDN line whenever a packet is transferred from the printer.

• If there is more than one DHCP server, use the same setting for all servers. The printer operates using data from the DHCP server that responds first.

Using AutoNet

If the printer IPv4 address is not assigned by a DHCP server automatically, a temporary IPv4 address starting with 169.254, which is not used on the network, can be automatically selected by the printer.

If an AutoNet address is set as the printer's IP address, it changes every time you turn on the printer. Configure the TCP/IP settings according to your network environment.

You must change this setting to “on” to use AutoNet.

Note

❒ The IP address assigned by the DHCP server is given priority over that select-

ed by AutoNet.

❒ You can confirm the current IPv4 address on the configuration page.

❒ The printer cannot communicate with devices that do not have the AutoNet

function. However, this printer can communicate with Macintosh computers running Mac OS X 10.2.3. or higher.

Appendix

When Using Windows Terminal Service/MetaFrame

The following explains how to use Windows Terminal Service and Maintenance.

Operating Environment

The following operating systems and MetaFrame versions are supported.

❖ Windows 2000 Server/Advanced Server

• MetaFrame XP 1.0 SP1/SP2/SP3/SP4/FR1/FR2/FR3

• MetaFrame Presentation Server 3.0

• Citrix Presentation Server 4.0

❖ Windows Server 2003/2003 R2

• MetaFrame XP 1.0 FR3

• MetaFrame Presentation Server 3.0

• Citrix Presentation Server 4.0

Supported Printer Drivers

❖ When Windows Terminal Service is operating

•DDST printer drivers

Note

❒ Some DDST Printer Driver functions do not work if Windows Terminal Serv-

ice is installed.

Limitations

The following limitations apply to the Windows Terminal Service environment.

These limitations are built in Windows Terminal Service or MetaFrame.

❖ Windows Terminal Service

In an environment where Windows Terminal Service is installed, some printer driver functions are unavailable, even if no Windows Terminal Service functions are used.

Reference

For more information, see Windows Help.

When Using Windows Terminal Service/MetaFrame

❖ MetaFrame's [Auto-creating client printers]

Using [Auto-creating client printers], you can select a logical printer created by copying the client's local printer data to the MetaFrame server. We strongly recommend testing this function in your network environment before using it for your work.

• The settings for optional equipment will not be stored in the server after

the equipment is disconnected. The settings for optional equipment will be restored to its defaults each time the client computer logs on to the server.

• When printing a large number of bitmap images or using the server in a

WAN environment over dial-up lines such as ISDN, printing may not be possible or errors may occur, depending on data transfer rates.

• When using MetaFrame XP 1.0 or higher versions, we recommend making

settings in [Client Printer bandwidth] under [Citrix Management Console] according to the environment.

• If a print error occurs on the MetaFrame XP 1.0 SP1/FR1 and the print job

or a printer created in [Auto-creating client printers] cannot be deleted, we recommend making settings in [Delete unfinished print jobs] in the registry. For details, see the Readme file provided with MetaFrame.

• If a print error occurs on the MetaFrame XP 1.0 FR2 and the print job or a

printer created in [Auto-creating client printers] cannot be deleted, we recommend making settings in [Delete unfinished print jobs at logout] of Citrix Management Console.

❖ MetaFrame's [Printer driver replication]

Using [Printer driver replication], you can distribute printer drivers across all servers in a server farm. We strongly recommend testing this function in your network environment before using it for your work.

• If the printer drivers are not properly copied, install them directly onto

each server.
