Using FTP for Print Server Management
Having assigned an IP address to your Axis Network Print Server, as
described in Assign an IP Address to the Print Server, on page 13, you
can change the Axis Network Print Server parameter settings using
the File Transport Protocol (FTP).
Editing the config file Follow the instructions below to edit the config file using FTP:
1. Log in to the Axis Network Print Server by typing:
ftp <host name> or ftp <IP address> in a DOS window
(Windows and OS/2) or in a UNIX shell.
2. Enter the user id and the password. (The default entries are
root
and
pass
.)
3. Download the config file to your host by typing:
get config
4. Edit the file using your preferred text editor.
5. Save the config file to the Axis Network Print Server by typing:
put config CONFIG
Notes:
The example on the next page describes how to edit the config file
using FTP from a DOS window.
• It is important that the destination file is specified in capital letters. Other-
wise the edits are temporary and will be lost once the Axis Network Print
Server has been powered off.
• To edit the config file from a Macintosh you will need FTP support such as
MacTCP, Fetch or Anarchie. The procedure for editing the file is the same as
described above.
