Internet Printing
Internet Printing is available only on model EP3003 CheetahPrint Power-3003.
The Internet Printing System allows users to print data to your printer across the
Internet. Users send the Internet Print Server an E Mail, with the print job normally
sent as an attachment to the E Mail. The Print Server will retrieve the E Mail and
print it.
System Requirements
Mail Server
• Accessibility. The Mail Server must be accessible by the intended clients or
users. Normally, this means a permanent connection to the Internet.
• Protocols. The Mail Server must support the POP3 and SMTP protocols. The
Internet Printing System uses these protocols and the most common E Mail
formatting standards:
•
MIME (Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions)
•
Base64 Encoding (for mail attachments)
EP3003 CheetahPrint Power-3003
• TCIP/IP Protocol. The LAN on which the EP3003 CheetahPrint Power-3003 is
installed must use the TCP/IP protocol.
• Mail Server Access. The EP3003 Print Server must be able to access the Mail
Server using a single IP address.
• Mail Account. The EP3003 Print Server must have a Mail Account. Users print
by sending an E Mail to this mail account.
User (Client) Requirements
• Internet Connection. Either through a LAN, or dial-up.
• E Mail address. This is used to notify the user that their print job has been done,
or if there any problems.
• Printer Driver. Users must have a printer driver which matches the printer
connected to the remote Internet Print Server.
• Print Capture Software. To print more than plain text, users require InterNet
Printing Port software to capture the print job and convert it into an E Mail
attachment.
The InterNet Printing Port software is available for the following operating
systems:
•
Microsoft Windows 95
•
Microsoft Windows NT 3.51 or later.
