LPD - Line Printer Daemon
Menu path:
Setup > Devices > Printer > LPD
LPD printers are used by the BSD printing system and are also supported by
Windows
servers.
Enable LPD print server
Makes the thin client an LPD print server. The CUPS printers defined
under 11.2.1.1 can be addressed under their printer name as a queue
name via the LPD protocol.
Print data conversion
Attempts to automatically recognize whether or not the print data need
to be prepared by the local printer driver. The
None
option always
forwards the print data unchanged to the printer.
Max. simultaneous connections
Limits the number of print jobs that can be accepted at the same time.
Restrict LPD access
Specifies the sub-networks or hosts from which print jobs can be
accepted.
9.1.3.
TCP/IP
Menu path:
Setup > Devices > Printer > TCP/IP
You can assign printers connected to your device to a TCP/IP port. The LPT1 (TCP/IP port 3003) is enabled
by default. The printer can be connected to one of the following connections, provided that they are
available on the device:
•
Serial connection (COM 1 or COM 2)
•
Parallel connection (LPT 1)
•
USB (USBLP 1)
•
Additional serial connections: USB adapter or
Perle expansion card
Data are forwarded bidirectionally at serial interfaces. This means that other serial devices such as barcode
scanners or scales can be operated too.
9.1.4.
ThinPrint
Menu path:
Setup > Devices > Printer > ThinPrint
ThinPrint
allows the bandwidth provided for the transfer of print jobs to be reduced depending on the
resources available. The
ThinPrint
client prints either on printers connected to a local interface (serial,
parallel or USB), on an LPD network printer or on a CUPS printer defined on the thin client.
The following parameters can be found on the
ThinPrint
setup page:
