PhaserShare
TCP/IP Configuration (UNIX)
PhaserShare Ethernet and Token Ring cards support the following capabilities:
Print jobs.
The interface can accept print jobs sent via AppSocket,
ftp
,
telnet
,
lpr,
or
lp
with
lpr
extensions.
Printer status.
The interface can report printer status through the following protocols:
lpq/lpc
(
lpc
for UNIX BSD systems only).
Syslog
(UNIX systems only)
.
This protocol functions like a remote printer front panel for reporting printer status.
SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol;
UNIX systems only
).
The printer's interface responds to status queries from host-resident SNMP utilities.
AppSocket
(UNIX systems only)
.
This protocol allows a direct, socket-level connection to the printer.
